What are the expectations on the ACT for a 9th grader?

I took the practice ACT earlier today and I’m kinda stressed about my performance. During the P-ACT, I had to skip around 10 questions for every section (grammar, math, reading, science) because I couldn’t go fast enough before time ran out. Is this normal to happen? How much will this affect my score?

It doesn’t matter. You take the ACT early to get used to it and score better when it counts. Don’t worry-it’s a starting point!
