"Your Composite score and each test score (English, Mathematics, Reading, Science) range from 1 (low) to 36 (high). The Composite Score is the average of your four test scores, rounded to the nearest whole number."

so 36 overall is probably pretty hard.. wait.. that means he could have got 36 36 35 35 and it would be rounded up to 36 overall !

Yeah, 36 is the highest...and yes, I did get 36 36 35 35 =P But that means I missed TWO questions out of I think 225. Which I'd say is still pretty decent.
Considering only about 300 people nationwide get a 36 every year ;)

Not all high school graduates take the ACT. Less than half do, in fact.

Classic moments from helping WhiteDragon move:

(Right after we get a very large metal dresser strapped onto the dollie)
Me: "I just realied that the dresser won't fit through at that angle, we have to redo it."
WhiteDragon: "Crap!"
(I Start doing the FF7 Victory Music.)
WhiteDragon: "Hey, that's the wrong music!"
