All About ACT Scores

By , About.com GuideApril 11, 2010

Follow me on:

Tens of thousands of students took the ACT on April 10th, and along with the exam comes a lot of anxiety. Most colleges, after all, place significant weight on ACT or SAT scores when making their admissions decisions. There are, however, over 800 colleges that are test-optional. In other words, these schools don't require test scores for some or all of their applicants. The list of test-optional colleges includes many quality schools such as Wake Forest, Bates, Pitzer and Denison.

If the college you are most interested in attending isn't test-optional, be sure to learn about ACT scores.

And to see how different colleges measure up, check out these ACT score comparison charts for matriculated students at different schools:
