***SEPTEMBER 2015 ACT DISCUSSION THREAD***

What did you do to improve your December scores. That’s basically what I got this month and I’m looking to raise it up to a 33. How did you prepare and study? Pm me if you have any tips?

I don’t, it let me view scores but when I did, it said they couldn’t give me them yet because they needed to check for quality assurance. Like 20 other kids at my school got the same thing.

Has anyone who received the quality assurance message gotten their scores?

No @thedude123 but you could call and see what the issue is. We called and the ACT person stated that my daughter’s test needs to have the essay scored before they will release the scores. He said that wasn’t as much a concern as it would have been if the information wasn’t accurately matched. I’m hoping that’s true. My daughter reported after the test that during the essay, the test prompter forgot to give them a five minute warning on the essay. She only gave them two minutes to wrap it up. She was unable to provide her conclusion sentence, but we decided not to say anything. I wonder if someone reported it. Who knows in this web of ACT stuff.

I thought the reading section was easier than usual

My son also got the quality assurance message. There are too many people who got this message to think it is “isolated” … In other words I don’t think there was actually a quality issue on his test. Others?

He really needs the score to decide his early strategy. Ugh! Waiting is annoying.

Got my scores late yesterday night, status changed to tested immediately.

anyone got writing score ?

We’re sorry. We know you are anxious to see your scores, but they cannot be viewed at this time.

We have received and processed your answer sheet, but there are still some quality assurance steps to complete before your scores can be reported. This includes resolving situations such as incomplete test form information on the answer sheet or test administration questions.

We will add scores each week as these situations are resolved, usually each Wednesday and Friday. Our goal is to report all scores within 8 weeks after the test date.ACT will notify you by email when your score report is ready

@jinpachi, wow a perfect score. Lol, does this mean you’re going to be on the news or something?

wtf yall crazy good!!! congrats to all you perfect scorers! And 34s and 35s!

people who got scores already: how does the curve feel compared to june/april curve

Who got their scores yesterday? I didn’t. Wednesday is the next time scores will go out. That’s so far away. What did everyone think of this test compared to other ones?

@Coolmom23 call up the ACT board with your child and ask why the quality assurance was flagged. They were able to give us information on why my daughter’s was flagged as I wrote above.

Still have one registered here. Everyone in his class received the ACT results on Wednesday. Hopefully he receives Friday. If not I guess I will have to call to see if there was a problem.

Still registered. Really hoping my scores will be released tomorrow.

@greenleaf1234
Curve for science is unforgiving i guess

Just checked my scores after almost having a nervous breakdown. 28C. not too bad for my first time but I will be taking them again.

Still have the “we’re sorry” message. Hopefully tomorrow, (Friday) the scores will be available. The delay is very upsetting, and then don’t know if the writing/essay score will be included. Has anyone who received their scores also received their writing/essay score as well?

Got my scores back yesterday:

Composite Score: 30

English 29

Mathematics 24
Reading 34

Science 33

Scores from spring:

Composite Score: 29
English 30

Mathematics 23

Reading 34

Science 29

Pleasantly surprised with the increase in science and math, not too sure why my english went down. Retaking in October hoping for a 31 or 32. Good luck to everyone waiting for scores, hope they’re posted soon!
