Hi, I'm currently prepping for the ACT Exam. Just a quick question, does anyone know what the top ACT score is? Thanks in advance!
Hello! The highest possible score on the ACT test is a composite score of 36. The ACT is divided into four main sections: English, Mathematics, Reading, and Science, each with a potential maximum score of 36. The composite score is simply the average of these four areas, rounded to the whole number. So if you ace all the sections, your composite score would be 36. Keep in mind, though, that even scoring well below this maximum can still be competitive for even the most selective colleges! Good luck with your test preparation.
