The act is scored in a similar fashion to a bell curve. view http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Actgraph.jpg The national average is about 20, so a good score depends on what kind of a student you are. Scoring ranges from 1-36. However, less than two percent of students score from 30-36. The 90% percentile is typically around 27, so a score of 27 or higher would be excellent.

∙ 14y agoBetter ACT scores may be obtained by tenaciously studying each subject. Just as important as the actual tested subjects, understanding how the test is scored and what to expect helps tremendously. It would be wise to purchase an ACT test prep book, take note of the tips given, and complete the practice tests. Additionally, it would be wise to take the ACT in the fall of your junior year in high school as to allow enough time for you to study and retake for a desirable score.
I took it three times and received a 31 my last time; I know I wouldn't have been able to receive that score if I had taken it any later in my high school career.
Best of luck!
