The ACT Assessment® is designed to assess high school students' general educational development and their ability to complete college-level work. The tests cover four skill areas: English, mathematics, reading, and science.
Performance on the ACT Assessment is expressed as a scale score. The scale score ranges from 1 (low) to 36 (high) for each of the four subject-area tests and for the Composite. The Composite is the average of the four test scores, rounded to the nearest whole number. ACT administers this assessment. ACT offers a 30-minute Writing test as an optional component for U.S. students.
