ACT for Juniors

Juniors, by now I feel confident that you are aware that you will be taking the ACT (for free) on Tuesday morning.  Freshmen, Sophomores, and Seniors, Tuesday is an Independent Learning Day for you.

I have a few reminders for the juniors as we head into this week and some important steps you need to be sure to follow.

1. You need to complete your non-test information in MyACT.  You should have received very detailed instructions and a test booklet to assist you in completing the required information.  You have from February 20-25th to submit your information.

As a reminder, you will be going to www.myact.org to create your account or to log in to your existing account.

2. You will complete the demographic information including your high school resume of courses - please do the best you can when completing that infromation and remember that you can use your transcript from Infinite Campus to assist you.

3. You will be given the opportunity to select 4 colleges where you want your scores to be sent, free of charge.  Please take advantage of that opportunity.  And, if you are planning to take CC+ classes at CSCC next year, please put them down as 1 of your 4 intended colleges so that they get your scores.

4. Prepare for test day.  This is an official ACT so you are strictly bound to all of the restrictions and requirements set forth by ACT.  Testing will begin at 7:45am so you will want to report to your assigned rooms by 7:40am.

Be sure to bring the following items with you on Tuesday morning:

• Photo ID
• Number 2 pencils (Remember, no mechanical pencils are allowed!)
• A Calculator

And, of course, I will also remind you to make sure you get a good night's sleep and to eat breakfast before coming to school on Tuesday so that you are in the best place possible for your test.
