Well, having graduated 61 years ago, wtf is an act score?

[Libertas]

Well, you just outed your age...   

Exam for high school kids to take so colleges can sort the kids academically...

...English, Math, Reading, and Science scores...

...and then ignoring them if the potential student has desirable socialist traits of absolutely no use to sane enterprises looking for qualified talent once they earn a college degree...

ACT is like the SAT, more common in certain regions. I took it long ago. both are good at predicting college success but libs prefer to see minorities flunk out of harder schools.

Wow.  19.5.  Used to be only aspiring teachers scored that low.   

Now it's the average.

If I remember right I think I scored 28 overall, ranging from 20 in English to a perfect 36 in math.
