what is ACT?
and if its meant for seniors (which I think means upper highschool ages in the USA?) why did you take it so early?

- but still good for you!

You can take it so you know what it feels like to take a long test. Also because it is supposed to help you to get into college.

Academic tests are a poor indicator of how "smart" someone is.

Im getting that the ACT provides an indicator of academic readiness for College level programs.
Impressive that someone around thirteen years old is already thinking about college - very good indeed ChamMan

Congratulations! Great job!!!!

i really have no idea what it is, just that it has something to do with college, and people in 11th grade take it. btw, im 13 thank you.

Chamman, I am 47 years old and I still have nightmares about taking the ACT test. Your late, your pencil breaks, it written in a foreign language---ARRGGGG. Well, it's nice to know that there is someone out there that can ace it!!!! Keep up the good work. My nephew is a nerd too, and I think he is fantastic!! His mom and dad kind of like him too.
