My son refused to prepare the week before the test and made a 34. He needed a 35 to earn the title of STAR Student, a state award which goes to the highest ACT score at each school, or every student with a 35 or 36. He’s got nine test dates to go until December 2016, so I guess I’ll sign him up for this September and as many times after that until he gets the 35.
Composite: 34
E: 34
M: 35
R: 33
S: 34
For what it’s worth he took the test at the end of eighth grade and made a 30. His reading and English scores did not move, but his math and science both went up by about eight points each, M from 27-35 and S from 25-34. He’ll be a junior next year. Needless to say, we’ll be working on PSAT prep in September, too.
