***SEPTEMBER 2015 ACT DISCUSSION THREAD***

i still have no scores.
if i dont have them by this wednesday then all hopes are done.
this is honestly so ridiculous… I’m going to miss my october 15th deadline because the ACT can’t get its act together.

@HariboGoldBear Same, nearly all the subscores of each of my sections are like that: all 18’s but only a 35… Can anyone explain how this works?

@seahawks1212 I am assuming GTech October 15th.You can send in scores until December 1st, so don’t stress out about that deadline.

Score report pdf is now available.

35 E is 99%
35 M is 99%
34 R is 98% (this was a bit of a surprise)
32 S is 97%
36 W is 99%

35 ELA is 99%
34 STEM is 99%

34 C is 99%

tfw no one from your test center has gotten scores yet

@Hermit9 is 34R supposed to by higher % or lower %?

@HariboGoldBear If a school accepts both tests, they weigh both tests equally

Unbelievable that Writing scores still haven’t come out for me

@RoadtotheIvies98 same boat. I hope I’m not set back too far in my Rolling Admission schools because of it.

Are writing scores released only on Wednesdays and Fridays like MC scores, or can they be released any day?

@ietmethink my son got an 18/15 on English subscores and a 33. ACT curves are a funny and unpredictable oddity!

Still didn’t get my full ACT report (with writing)… If it doesn’t arrive by November 1 does that mean I can’t apply for early decision?

I would think that if a school specifies the last test administration that they accept, and the september date was before that, then it would not impact your ability to apply to that school. I can’t say for sure though. I feel for you!

@chubii Higher. According to the ACT website, 34 reading is usually 99%.

@Hermit9, you are looking at old percentiles. These are the new ones and your scores match-up identically: http://www.act.org/aap/pdf/NormsChartMCandComposite-Web2015-16.pdf.

Its seriously sloppy on ACT’s part… When I last wrote the test I got the scores in 2 weeks… Now, its almost a month and my status still says registered. The view/print ticket option is gone, but that is all that has happened. I am kinda freaking out because this means that I will not be able to write the test again.
P.S. My test center was Bangalore, India. Anyone from Bangalore got their scores yet?

Hey! I’m from India. I got my ACT scores a while back but I haven’t got my writing scores yet. How much time does it take for the writing scores to come out? I’m kinda worried because my EA schools’ deadlines are fast approaching

@computernerdv2 Me and 2 other guys in this thread also wrote the test in Bangalore. If the scores don’t come by next wed, we’re screwed for EA/ED

Which ACT score should I submit?
June: composite 31:
English: 35 Reading: 36 Science: 27 Math: 27 Writing: 8
September: composite 31:
English: 35 Reading: 34 Science: 29 Math: 27 Writing: 22

I think the 8 on writing looks better than a 22…thoughts?

For those of you who have not received your essay scores yet, have you emailed the ACT? If so, what did you say and what did they reply back? Thanks!
