PreACT
What is the PreACT?
A standardized test taken freshman or sophomore year of high school
Subtests include: Reading, English, Science and Math
The STEM score is an average of the math and science scores only
The COMPOSITE score is an average of all of the subtests
![Page 18: Sophomore Parent Meeting - Lawrence North High Schoollawrencenorth.ltschools.org/MediaLibraries/lawrencenorth...Sophomore Classes English •English 10 or •English 10 Honors* or](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071608/614650108f9ff81254202f58/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Why take the PreACT?• The PreACT is a great way to practice
before taking the ACT (usually sophomore
or junior year).
• Students may choose to send their PreACT
scores to colleges and organizations for
scholarship consideration
• The PreACT includes a career interest
inventory that informs students of
potential careers based on their responses
