Hey! I took the ACT recently and the waiting is really getting to me. Anyone knows what time do ACT scores usually come out?
Typically, ACT scores start to become available 10 days after the test date. However, it can sometimes take up to 8 weeks for scores to be posted based on various reasons such as the number of test-takers or potential reviewing of results.
As for the time of day, the approximate time ACT usually releases scores online is around 1 AM Eastern Time. But remember, not everyone gets their scores at the exact same time. It tends to be a process that rolls out throughout the morning.
So, the wait can indeed be a bit nail-biting, but rest assured knowing that your scores will come in due course! Good luck!
