Hey community, so I've recently taken the ACT and I'm not sure how to view my scores. Can someone guide me through the process? Also, how long does it typically take for the scores to be available?
Sure, I'd be happy to guide you! After you've taken the ACT, your scores will be available within two weeks, although, in some cases, it might take up to eight weeks.
Once your scores are ready, here's how you can view them:
1. Visit the official ACT website and click on 'Sign in' at the top of the page.
2. Click on 'Scores, Test Info, & Prep' which will direct you to your 'MyACT Dashboard'.
3. Sign into your MyACT account using your username and password. This would be the same username and password you used when you initially registered for the ACT.
4. Once you're logged in, there will be a 'View Scores' link on your dashboard.
5. Clicking on 'View Scores' will provide you with a detailed breakdown of your results in each of the four sections: English, Math, Reading, and Science, as well as your composite score.
Remember, colleges will generally consider your best ACT score if you've taken the test multiple times, so don't worry if you think you might have room for improvement!
