When I took it waaaay back in 2004, I got a 22. Pretty lame if you ask me. My girlfriend got a 23 and my sister got a 21. Average, the story of my life.


All I remember is that I did awesome in the english, science, and reading but BOMBED the math with a 17.

Last year I took it once, as an additional test in the college arsenal, and pulled a 32 composite. However, it did me absolutely no good whatsoever, because most schools require that you also take the optional writing section in order to even consider the scores. I didn't take it at the time, so my scores meant nothing. *TAKE THE WRITING SECTION!*

Well as of right now I have only taken it once, I will probably take it again for free in the fall (Michigan Merit Testing allows two free ACTs).

I don't remember specifics, but first time (as a sophomore) composite was a 31, second (mandated MI version, taken with the MME) was a 32, third (the only time I actually took it in a regular testing facility) was a 33 and that's the one I'm sticking with, haha. Generally the math/sciences were in the 33/34 range, with english/reading in the 29-31 range.

I got a 30 total :D

I got a 32 back in 8th grade. I had 34's and 35's in Science, Reading, and English, but got like a 26 in Math.

Not spectacular.

Anyone else in the boat with me that standardized testing is not an accurate way of measuring intelligence, creativity, critical thinking, communication, nor problem solving skills? These are what companies are looking for when recruiting new employees, however most of the emphasis is teaching and testing "The three R's"

Just my .02, feel free to disagree.
