Why take the ACT?

ACT Test (Taken Junior or Senior year)

The most frequently taken test, the ACT is now accepted by every college and university in the US.
The test includes four sections: English, Math, Reading Comprehension, and Science. It is more curriculum based than the SAT. The writing section is optional.
The score range is 1-36, and the average score in Missouri is just over 21. The University of Missouri requires a 25.
Students who earn a 31 or higher receive a $2000 / year Bright Flight Scholarship to any school in Missouri.
Students with IEP's or 504 Plans may take extended-time tests. Check with your school counselor about which tests will allow extended time.
All Columbia classes will be held at Focus on Learning Center, Inc.
