The ACT® test was developed by the American College Testing Program.  The ACT exam has four sections: English, Mathematics, Reading and Science.  The maximum score is a 36.  The ACT test is used to screen college applicants.  All students under 21 are required to have a National ACT score as part of the admission process.  Some other reasons a student might need a National ACT are:

• applying for scholarships
• concurrent enrollment students
• health science majors
• removing course deficiencies

There are two types of ACT (National and Residual).
