ACT

The ACT Assessment is a college admission test in direct competition with the SAT. The ACT Assessment contains four curriculum-based tests that measure academic achievement in the areas of English, Mathematics, Reading, and Science. The ACT also provides an overall Composite score. In addition to these four curricular areas and the summary composite, students may also opt to complete an additional writing assessment (ACT Plus) new in 2006. The ACT writing component is recommended by our high school counseling staff when students opt to take the ACT.
