That would be my score. Could be worse. I think I did fairly good.

No, you need a 20 or higher to go to a decent state school. Study over the summer to improve your score. It helped me a lot. Take it as many times as you can. I took it 3 times and might take it a 4th time.

No. That's not even a good score on the PLAN test, an ACT preparatory test which scores up to 32. Out of 36, 15 is less than half. My suggestion, study harder, get a retake and vie for extra time so your answers are not rushed. Most major colleges and universities would take that score as a thumbs-down. However, some Div. III and community colleges would accept that if that is your future. But for Div. II or higher, at least a 22.

You're right it could be worse. But a 15 is not good. The average score is 21. Study some more then take it again.

15 out of 36? You should re-take it. Most colleges and universities require higher ACT scores. Usually, at least a 21. You can re-take the test in the fall. Yeah. Good luck. You should probably study more. Purchase a test prep book or something.

It could be better, but don't let this discourage you. Take some practice tests and work on the sections you need extra help in. Get The Real ACT Guide Book. This is a good practice book. It's made by the makers of ACT.

most colleges have a minimum score for admittance but some will let you in but you will have to take 0 level classes first...check with your local school to see what they require and what allowances they make for poor test scores...sometimes going to a jr college will get you started and some are a little more understanding and easier to work with you...good luck

A 15 out of 36 is not good, not good at all.

Depends on your age. I got a 30 in 8th grade, which made local papers.

15 sucks. Take it again.
