<h3><strong>What is ACT?</strong></h3>
<strong>American College Testing (ACT)</strong> is a standardized test for high school achievement and admissions in the United States. The ACT is a college entrance exam that many colleges and universities in the United States use as part of the college admissions process.

The ACT assessment measures high school students' general educational development and their capability to complete college-level work with the multiple choice tests covering four skill areas: English, Mathematics, Reading, Natural Science and Writing (optional) which measures skill in planning and writing a short essay. The main four tests are scored individually on a scale of 1-36, and a Composite score is provided which is the whole number average of the four scores.
