- It is recommended that juniors take either the ACT or SAT at least once in the spring of their junior year.
- Fortunately, NC DPI, in conjuction with ACT, provides the ACT for all juniors in the spring each year, free of charge, and on a school day.
- DHS juniors will take the ACT on Tuesday, March 12, 2019. Start preparing NOW! There are many free resources to practice for the ACT and SAT (scroll down for links for free resources).
- Once you receive your scores, (6 to 8 weeks after testing), you can make a determination of whether that score will meet the criteria for the colleges you are most interested in, or if you need to test again to try and improve your score. You will need to make a decision on whether to take the ACT again or switch over to the SAT. (See article below.)
- You will need an ACT account to retest or to send scores to the colleges of your choice. Register here. Once you go to the registration site, scroll down- there is information on ACT accounts if you tested at your high school – see below.
