How ACT figures the multiple-choice and composites scores?
You’ve answered the questions and ACT has scored the results. Here’s how:
1. First, they counted the number of questions on each test that you answered correctly. They did not deduct any points for incorrect answers. (There is no penalty for guessing.)
2. Then they converted your raw scores (number of correct answers on each test) to “scale scores.” Scale scores have the same meaning for all the different forms of the ACT® test, no matter which dates a test was taken.
3. Your Composite score and each test score (English, mathematics, reading, science) range from 1 (low) to 36 (high). The Composite score is the average of your four test scores, rounded to the nearest whole number. Fractions less than one-half are rounded down; fractions one-half or more are rounded up.
4. Each reporting category includes the total number of questions in that category, the total number of questions in that category you answered correctly, and the percentage of questions correct. ACT reporting categories are aligned with ACT College and Career Readiness Standards and other standards that target college and career readiness.
