Results in Three Quick
Steps
Your ACT
®
Aspire
®
student score report contains a lot of information about your skills that can
help answer three important questions about you and your future.
1. Where do I stand right now?
ACT Aspire shows your strengths and weaknesses in up to five subject areas:
English, mathematics, reading, science, and writing. You can also see how you are
doing in combined subject areas such as English Language Arts (ELA) and Science,
Technology,Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). Your report also shows how you
performed in specific skill areas within each subject. Finally, you can see how your scores
compare to those of other students who have taken ACT Aspire.
2. How can I make goals for the future?
The scores you achieved on the ACT Aspire test(s) can help you decide what to do next.
Looking at particular areas of strength and weakness can help you determine where you
need help and where you may need to be challenged. This information can help you plan
coursework and set goals.
3. Am I on target for college and a career?
For most students, reaching their goals includes getting a college education. Preparing for
college or workplace training means having access to quality instruction and putting forth
your best effort. Your ACT Aspire score report references ACT Readiness Benchmarks,
ACT Readiness Ranges, and, if you are in eighth grade or above, a Progress Toward Career
Readiness indicator.
This guide will help you understand the information on your ACT Aspire student score report
and how it can help you.
2
What Your Scores Mean
For each of the four subject tests you took (English, reading, science, and mathematics) you
will see a three-digit score. Just like your teachers turn your quizzes and test scores into grades,
ACT Aspire takes the number of points you got right on each test and translates it into a score
on the ACT Aspire scale.
Your score for each subject will fall into one of four levels: Exceeding, Ready, Close, or In Need
of Support. The level your score falls into indicates how you did in meeting certain standards.
Students with scores in the Exceeding or Ready levels are also classified as meeting the ACT
Readiness Benchmarks. Your score for the combined scores (ELA and STEM) will fall into one
of the two levels: Meets Benchmark and Below Benchmark. Table 1 shows the ACT Readiness
Benchmarks for all grades and subjects. Students who score at or above these benchmarks are
on target for college readiness when they take the ACT
®
test in eleventh grade.

10 428 428 432 432 430 437
More specific information about how you performed in each subject is also available in the
form of skill scores. Several skills (also called reporting categories) are measured for each
subject. The score report includes the percent and number of points earned out of the total
number of points possible in each skill. Student performance in each skill is also compared
to an ACT Readiness Range, which indicates whether you appear to be on target or may need
help.

The information in the report depends on which subject tests you took and the grade level at
which you tested. The following scores are available for all grade levels:
•
The ACT Aspire Composite Score is the simple average of the English, reading, science,
and mathematics test scores (rounded to the nearest whole number) if you took all of those
tests at the same grade level. Your ACT Aspire Composite Score summarizes how well you
did across the four subjects.
•
ELA Score, which averages your English, reading, and writing test scores
•
STEM Score, which averages your science and mathematics test scores
•
Progress with Text Complexity Indicator, which identifies whether you are making
sufficient progress toward reading the complex texts you may encounter as you further your
education
•
Scale Score Range, which shows the scores you would likely obtain if you took the test
again without additional coursework
•
Your National Percentile Rank, which is the percentage of students in the nation who
received a score that is the same or lower than yours for each subject test you took (see more
about National Percentile Rank below)
Additional scores are available for students who took the English, reading, science, and
mathematics tests at grade 6 or higher.
•
The Progress Toward Career Readiness Indicator (grades 8-10) uses your ACT Aspire
Composite Score to predict a future ACT National Career Readiness Certificate™ (ACT
®
NCRC
®
) achievement level.
•
Predicted 10th grade PreACT English, reading, science, and mathematics score ranges
(grades 6-9). If you took all these ACT Aspire subject tests, you will also receive a Predicted
PreACT Composite Score Range.
•
Predicted 11th grade ACT English, reading, science, and mathematics score ranges (grades
7-10). If you took all these ACT Aspire subject tests, you will also receive a Predicted ACT
Composite Score Range.
Most students take the ACT test in 11th or 12th grade. ACT test scores and high school grades
are often used by colleges to help determine which students are admitted, and to select
students for scholarships. ACT Aspire subject tests offer a bridge to the PreACT and ACT tests.
ACT Aspire covers the same subjects as the ACT test, and performance on ACT Aspire is a
strong predictor of performance on the ACT test. You can use the predicted ACT scores to see
if you are on target to achieve the ACT scores that may be needed to qualify for the colleges,
training programs, and scholarships in which you might be interested.
Keep in mind that the predicted ACT score ranges are only estimates, not guarantees. Having
good school attendance, completing your school work, and taking challenging courses can lead
to higher ACT scores.

How Your Scores Compare
The student score report shows your scale score for each subject (above the graph) and the
national average score (below the graph). These show how you scored on different subjects
compared with students across the country.
Your score for each subject is also associated with a national percentile rank that shows how
your score compares among students across the nation. In Figure 2, the score report shows
“61st” as the percentile rank for the sample student’s reading score. This means that the sample
student scored as high as or higher than 61% of students in the national comparison group.

Your Plans for High
School and Beyond
Compare Your Scores to ACT Readiness Benchmarks
Your ACT Aspire results can be compared to ACT Readiness Benchmarks for grades 3–10 to give
you an early indication of whether you are on target to be ready for college-level coursework or
for participation in workplace training.
In your score report, the plots of your scores show whether you scored above, at, or below
benchmark scores (see Figure 3). In the example, the sample ninth grade student scored 436
on the English test, which is above the ACT Readiness Benchmark of 426, and earned an
Exceedng readiness level. Students that score at or above the ACT Readiness Benchmark on
the ACT Aspire English, reading, science, and mathematics tests are on target to do well in
these subjects in college, assuming they will experience typical growth moving forward.

Your Readiness Action Plan
Look at how your scores for each subject compare to the ACT Readiness Benchmark scores on
your score report. Then compare your skill scores in each subject to the ACT Readiness Ranges
listed on page 2 of the Student Report (Figure 4, page 8).
Are your subject scores at or above the ACT Readiness Benchmarks or your skill scores
within the ACT Readiness Ranges? If so, you are doing well, but keep working hard. There is
still a lot to learn. Not sure where to start? See “Improvement Ideas” on page 2 of the Student
Report.
Are your subject scores below the ACT Readiness Benchmarks or your skills scores below
the ACT Readiness Ranges? If so, you can review the suggestions for improving your skills
listed on page 2 of your report, especially for your lowest-scoring skills. You can also ask your
teachers about things you can do to improve in these areas.
You can also discuss improvement ideas with your school counselor, and other adults in your
life, so that you can work together to meet your educational goals. It’s important to start taking
action now.
If you have access to a computer with an internet connection, you can use ACT Academy to
improve your skills. To get started, go to academy.act.org and click on Resource Library at the
top of the page. You can then enter your grade and the subject you’d like to work on. Lessons,
games, assessments, and more are available to help you learn.

on developing topics effectively, organizing ideas in logical, cohesive ways, and
expressing ideas in a stylistically consistent manner.
Knowledge of Language: In your writing, experiment with how word choices affect
meaning and how language functions differently in different contexts.
Conventions of Standard English: Challenge yourself to write complex sentences,
avoiding all errors in sentence construction and using parts of speech and punctuation
correctly.
READING
Key Ideas & Details: Read increasingly complex texts from a variety of genres. W ork
on making and supporting reasonable inferences and on identifying and inferring main
ideas, themes, sequences, and relationships.
Craft & Structure: As you read, consider the purpose of texts and parts of texts. Also
analyze how texts are organized, how authors use point of view, and how authors use
words and phrases.
Integration of Knowledge & Ideas: Read complex texts from a variety of genres.
Analyze how authors present arguments, focusing on strengths and weaknesses.
Also, look for connections between and among related texts.
WRITING SCORE POINT DESCRIPTORS
Use the following rubric descriptions of your writing scores to identify your
strengths and areas for improvement.
Ideas & Analysis: The response is somewhat appropriate to the task, with an
analysis that is oversimplified or imprecise. Implications or complications are only
somewhat clear or relevant. Specific details and generalized ideas are somewhat
connected.
Development & Support: Explanations of ideas are limited, but include some use of
supporting reasons and/or relevant examples.
Organization: The response exhibits some evidence of organizational structure.
Some ideas are logically grouped. Transitions between and within paragraphs
sometimes clarify the relationships among ideas.
Language Use & Conventions: The response demonstrates some developing ability
to convey meaning. W ord choice is general and occasionally imprecise. Sentence
structures show little variety and are sometimes unclear. Voice and tone are somewhat
appropriate for the analytical purpose but are inconsistently maintained. Distracting
errors in grammar, usage, and mechanics are present, and they sometimes impede
understanding.
