Hi there! So I just took the ACT, and I'm wondering how to view my score when it comes out. What's the process like, and how long do I have to wait after taking the test to see my score? Thanks!
Hi! Congrats on completing the ACT! The process for viewing your ACT scores is quite simple. Here's what you need to do:
1. Log in to your ACT account: If you haven't already set up an account, you can create one on the ACT website. You'll need your ACT ID, which can be found on your admission ticket, to link test scores to your account.
2. Wait for scores to be released: Generally, multiple-choice scores are available online within 2 weeks after your test date. However, it can sometimes take up to 8 weeks for scores to be posted. Writing scores are typically released about 2 weeks after your multiple-choice scores.
3. Check your scores: Once your scores are available, you'll be able to view them by logging in to your ACT account. You'll receive an email notification from ACT when your scores are ready. Keep in mind that scores are released in batches, so don't worry if a friend receives their scores before you do; yours will be available soon.
Remember that these timelines are approximate, and score release dates can vary. So, just be patient and keep an eye on your email for notifications from ACT. Good luck!
