I took it twice three years apart and made a 23 both times. I didn't really learn any of the shite on the ACT in highschool though.
I slept most of the time during the ACT and guessed every question in the remaining 10 minutes

I took it in 7th grade and got to go to Duke for some awards thing.

Got a 33 in high school. Serving coffee and mowing yards now.

I got a 21 in seventh grade with the TIPS program; math section was the struggle because I had no idea what trigonometry even was.

Got it up to a 32 senior year of high school. Your son is gonna be getting dat scholarship money.

I took the SAT at the time and the conversion IIRC was like 17 on the ACT.

Then got 28 when I actually took the ACT later.

I think most kids go up about 7 points from their 7th grade score. I know 3 that went up 9 from a 19.


17 in 7th Grade
27 Soph in HS
30 Jr in HS

har har har no i made much higher than that and made a career for myself right out of college at 22, but i don't brag about it like everyone likes to do because it shows little about your college career or anything. Most of what it shows is how fast you can read and comprehend something, it's a speed test more than anything

i'm sure i could have made even higher with more practice but i didn't care enough because i got what i needed to go where i wanted to go

Posted on page one and someone wanted me to explain. I know lots of people who work for duke tip. They say that the smart kids get between 25-30 with the elite getting in the 32 range. I know one student who's in the 11th grade that got a perfect last year and in 7th grade they got an 32. Myself I only took it once in 10th grade and got a 32 without any prep.
