Built for the current Enhanced ACT — 50 English questions, 45 Math, 36 Reading, Science optional. Most guides online still describe the test ACT retired.
Three scored sections, not four. Science no longer counts toward the composite, and a quarter of the Reading section is unscored.
Read it →GuideThe percentile every other page gives you, plus the part they cannot: how many colleges pay a published award at your score, and what each one pays.
Read it →GuideThe five bands, how much of the field sits in each, and how many colleges publish a scholarship at the bottom of every one.
Read it →GuideThe next date, how many days are left to register, and whether the score will arrive before your scholarship deadline.
Read it →GuideWhat the final week can actually move: per-question pacing for all four sections, the rules worth memorising, and the section to drop if time is short.
Read it →GuideNo academy publishes a minimum ACT score. Who superscores, who needs a nomination, and the ROTC scholarship that still requires the ACT Science section.
Read it →ToolOfficial conversion tables. Counts only scored questions — English is out of 40, not 50.
Read it →GuideEvery date and deadline, plus the timing trap: your score can arrive after the scholarship deadline.
Read it →GuideNew question counts, optional Science, and the 29 questions that don't count toward your score.
Read it →ToolPublished scholarship grids, school by school — what each score is worth, and the next point.
Read it →ToolMerit aid runs on a grid. Work out what crossing one band is worth at your teen's schools.

Read it →Guide39 of 209 schools superscore for scholarships, 25 refuse, and 145 never say — with each school's own words.
Read it →ToolBest English, Math and Reading across every test date — and what superscoring is worth to you.
Read it →GuideThree days, one week, or two weeks out — what to do with the time you actually have.
Read it →GuideEvery option priced honestly — tutors, courses, books, apps — and what each actually buys.
Read it →You should — they're the best source of real questions, and we'd tell you to do them either way. What they don't do is tell you why you got something wrong, or what to study next. If you're disciplined enough to review every miss on your own and you already know your weak spots, the free tests plus the $30 official book are genuinely enough. Most students aren't, and don't. That's the gap we fill.
Yes. Schools like Auburn, Arizona State, and UT Austin publish automatic merit awards tied to ACT score bands — a 5-point move can cross two of them. We track 171 universities paying automatic merit aid at a 28, and the difference between two bands can be far larger than people expect — at Alabama, an out-of-state student moving from a 27 to a 32 goes from $8,000 a year to $28,000, which is $80,000 across four years.
Your plan is built around your test date, so a six-day sprint looks nothing like an eight-week build. The diagnostic tells you which section to start with, and the plan tells you what to do each day — so the time you do have goes to the right things instead of whatever's next in a book.
In-person ACT tutors charge $50-100/hour, and most students need 20+ hours — $1,000-2,000. ClutchACT starts at $29 for one full timed test, or $169 once for unlimited AI tutoring on 5,000+ questions. Less than a single tutoring hour either way.
Built specifically for the Enhanced ACT format. 4 answer choices, shorter passages, optional Science section — every question is written to match the current test.
Depends which you pick. One Full Test ($29) is a complete timed Enhanced ACT, yours permanently. Lifetime ($169) is everything, forever. Neither is a subscription. And if you start with the test and want everything later, the $29 comes off the Lifetime price for 7 days.
Five questions per section. A projected score for each one. The two things costing you the most points — before you do anything else.
