Frequently asked questions
What is a 10 ACT in SAT terms?
An ACT Composite of 10 is equivalent to an SAT total of 630 on the official ACT/SAT concordance published by College Board and ACT. SAT totals from 620 to 640 all convert back to an ACT 10.
Is 10 a good ACT score?
A 10 ranks at the 2nd percentile, meaning 2% of recent ACT-tested graduates scored a 10 or lower. It is at or above the 25th percentile of enrolled students at 0 of the 141 colleges in our dataset that publish an ACT range, and above the 75th percentile at 0 of them.
Should I retake the ACT with a 10?
A retake is worth the most at schools where a 10 is below the 25th percentile, because that is where your score is working against you. At schools where you are already inside the middle 50%, a retake is optional. At schools where you are above the 75th percentile, the ACT is no longer what holds your application back.
