Miss Marple Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Usually the science subscore is my boys' worst score. It's never terrible, but usually is the lowest or one of the lowest. Imagine our surprise when the April scores came back and ds (junior) scored a 31! It was his high score (others were 28, 29, 29). I asked him about it and he said it was super easy this time around. Did your students find it easy this time? I wonder how much to credit his concurrent biology course with his improvement. I believe he scored a 24 or 25 last December.

Kalypso Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 That is awesome!! My dd took the test, too, but her scores have not yet posted. I am so anxious to get her scores!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenny in Florida Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 English and Reading are always my son's highest subtest scores (28 and 31 this time), but he did bring up his Science score quite a bit. I think he had a 19 last time around, and this time a 25. He did concentrate his prep work on science and math, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rebamuses Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 We got my son's scores yesterday...science was also his lowest (it's our first time taking ACT, he is also a junior). He says he understands the problems, he just finds it difficult to work quickly. He received a 24 (25...I can't remember) in science, but his overall score was 29 since he did well in the other catagories. I'm not sure I'll make him take it again....29 seems high enough to get into the schools of his choice. Do you think you'll have your son take again? It sounds like he did really well!
