ACT Results

I took the ACT for the second time on April 10. It felt good and I was pumped to get the results. They said it would take 3-8 weeks to get the results and this coming Saturday is 3 weeks. Luckily my results came in yesterday. I did improve, which is the good thing.

2009 Composite------29
2010 Composite------30_______96%
2009 English---------25
2010 English---------27_______86%
2009 Mathematics---32
2010 Mathematics---33_______98%
2009 Reading--------29
2010 Reading--------27_______81%
2009 Science---------28
2010 Science---------32_______98%

You can certainly see what I am good at.

What struck me as funny is the math section as three subcategories and I aced two of them and yet I am only in the 99% percentile. Somehow 1% of the people that take the ACT do better than 100% on those two sections.

The other 1% understand what it means to be in the 99th percentile.

See but it's not percentile. The ACT results page say that the percentages and the "Aproxiamate percent of ACT-tested students at or below your score."
