Enter ACT Attempts
Track multiple attempts, compare sections, and measure progress against goals.
Formula Used
Composite Score = Round((English + Math + Reading) ÷ 3)
Superscore = Round((Best English + Best Math + Best Reading) ÷ 3)
STEM Score = Round((Math + Science) ÷ 2), shown only when Science is entered.
Growth = Latest Composite − First Composite
Consistency Range = Highest Composite − Lowest Composite
This tracker stores every attempt, calculates single-test composites, builds a cumulative superscore, and highlights the section needing the most attention.
How to Use This Calculator
- Enter your target composite and optional target section scores.
- Add one row for each ACT attempt.
- Fill in English, Math, and Reading for every row.
- Add Science when you want science tracking and STEM output.
- Click Track Scores to display results above the form.
- Review composites, superscore, growth, averages, and your focus section.
- Use the CSV and PDF buttons to export the result tables.

FAQs
1. What does this tracker calculate?
It calculates single-test composite scores, cumulative superscore progress, optional STEM scores, section averages, growth from your first attempt, and goal gaps.
2. Why is science optional here?
This page tracks the current composite method using English, Math, and Reading. Science can still be logged separately and used for a STEM-style view.
3. How is the superscore estimated?
The calculator takes your best English, best Math, and best Reading scores from all entered attempts, averages them, and rounds to the nearest whole number.
4. Can I track more than three attempts?
Yes. Use the Add Attempt Row button to include as many attempts as you need, then submit the form again to refresh the analysis.
5. What does consistency range mean?
Consistency range shows the spread between your highest and lowest composite scores. A smaller range often means steadier performance across test dates.
6. How is the focus section chosen?
If you enter targets, the tool selects the section with the largest remaining gap. Without targets, it chooses the section with the lowest average score.
7. What can I export?
You can export the summary metrics and attempt table as CSV or PDF after results are generated. This is useful for tutoring plans and study reviews.
8. Is this a substitute for an official score report?
No. It is a planning and tracking tool. Official reports and college policies remain the final source for score reporting, superscoring, and admissions use.
