Pre-ACT Results: This lesson is extremely important. Please take time and great care when implementing this lesson as it will assist students in preparing for next year's ACT.

THESE ARE NOT ACTUAL ACT SCORES, they are predictive scores to help you know if you are on track to performing well on the ACT.

  • Advisors check mailboxes for results
