You can use this curve (derived from December 2007) to see what you got this time around.

Note that this is a rough approximation because all curves are different.
Good Luck everyone!!!

E:
-8 is around a 30
-7 is around a 30
-6 is around a 31
-5 is around a 32
-4 is around a 33
-3 is around a 34
-2 is around a 35
-1 is around a 35

M:
-10 is around a 30
-9 is around a 30
-8 is around a 31
-7 is around a 32
-6 is around a 32
-5 is around a 33
-4 is around a 34
-3 is around a 34
-2 is around a 35
-1 is around a 36

R:
-8 is around a 30
-7 is around a 31
-6 is around a 31
-5 is around a 32
-4 is around a 33
-3 is around a 34
-2 is around a 35
-1 is around a 35

S:
-7 is around a 28
-6 is around a 29
-5 is around a 30
-4 is around a 32
-3 is around a 33
-2 is around a 34
-1 is around a 35

Enjoy!!

Thanks a lot for posting this.. it makes me feel a little better about not finishing the math (#@%$!). Science curve looks rough, but hey, maybe I'll get my 35. Or if the planets are aligned in my favor, a 36, lol.

Damn. If the science is so hard, then why is the curve always the worst?

theyoungboi

my science score is going to be horrible compared to my other scores

i know i only missed 3 MAX on the math and about 4 or the English. Im worried about science and reading. The genotype passage on the science was hard.

This may be a stupid question, but as someone who finds the science section to be the most difficult by far, why does it always have a significantly worse curve than the other 3 subjects? It's the only section that I get more than 1 or 2 problems wrong on, and the only I don't finish completely, and yet I'm penalized for it more than I would be on the other tests.

I'm wondering the same thing. The consensus (especially for this test) is that science was a beast. So can we expect a much better curve -perhaps a -15 is a 35

^ yeah i am predicting a nice curve for science this time around

I still don't understand why science always has the worst curve when so many people find it to be the hardest section...

I still don't understand why the science section is even on the ACT... that's one of many reasons I will always prefer the SAT. Ugh.

I completely agree, it doesn't even have anything to do with scientific knowledge, it's just a "tables, graphs, and convoluted experiments" section.

wis3ly

I agree with you all!

Math was easy and has the easiest curve? What is this?

Science was like DAMN..what da hell? I think -10 should be 36.

TBOL3

The curves change to keep a nice bell graph. I have a feeling that the math curve will be a bit harsher, and the science curve a bit easier.

raveflare

I don't want the curve on Math to be harsher =( I'm totally cool with a minus 4 being a 34! Or maybe even -6! Be nice ACT!

How is the science section hard? its just analyzing simple graphs
