To learn more about what your writing scores mean, visit www.act.org/the-act/writing-
scores.
Your STEM and ELA scores represent your overall performance on the specific subject tests
you took. The STEM score looks at the science and mathematics tests to produce a combined
score, and the ELA does the same for the English, reading, and writing tests. If you didn’t
receive a score for one of the subject areas, no STEM or ELA score will be produced.
The main graphic on your score report also shows how your scores relate to the ACT College
Readiness Benchmarks for each multiple-choice subject (and also for the STEM and ELA
scores). If your score for a test was above or equal to the Benchmark, it means you have a 50%
chance of obtaining a B or higher, or about a 75% chance of obtaining a C or higher in specific
first-year college courses in the corresponding subject area. There is currently no Benchmark
for writing.
Finally, you’ll see a section about your US and State ranks for the different subject tests, as
well as the Composite, ELA, and STEM scores. Your ranks tell you the approximate percentages
of recent high school graduates in the US and your state who took the ACT and received
scores that are the same as or lower than your scores. In the example of the Composite score
on the previous page, a rank of 56 for your Composite score means 56% of students earned a
Composite score of 21 or below.
