On Tuesday, April 24, junior students took a district-wide ACT test. An ACT score is given on a scale of 1 to 36, with 36 being a perfect score.
During this recent ACT, junior Seth Ludwig earned a perfect composite score of 36. This means that the average of each of the four subjects was a 36.
“I got 35 in science and 36 on everything else,” Ludwig said.
This was his second time taking the ACT, and he said that hasn’t studied very much either time.
When asked how he felt when he received his score, Ludwig said, “I was happy, I guess. It was one point higher than the last time I took it, so it wasn’t that great.” The last time he took the test, he received a score of 35.
However, the mark between a score of 35 and 36 is a great one.
According to the RSD website, “Exceptional scores of 36 provide colleges with evidence of student readiness for the academic rigors that lie ahead.”
