What is a "good" ACT score?

I think 25 and above is good.

depends on what kind of school you're trying to get into. My 29 was pretty good, but it wouldn't have gotten me into Harvard.

That supposedly puts you around the 75th percentile so I can roll with that.

That sounds low, but is probably right.

ACT scores (along with an applicant’s high school grades, curriculum, and class rank) are the largest determinants into whether a college will accept an applicant. The ACT test is based out of 36 points, with scores ranging from 1 to 36. The average ACT score of all 1.4 million test takers nationwide remains consistent from year to year, and was just above 21.1 in 2009. Almost 30% of ACT takers score between a 19 and 23. 55% of all ACT takers score between 17 and 25

Well, yeah. You need 30+ to get into a great school. 20+ will probably get you into your major state school.

The OT should sign up for the ACT as a group, take the test, and post our scores.
I'd laugh at all the idiots who post sub 25 scores.

I took it in 1980. I think it may have been different back then. I made a 28, which was pretty good for Block high school Jonesville,La.

Valedictorian at my high school couldn't get above a 16. A really stupid kid that actually failed a grade scored a 24.
ACT scores are really pointless.
