A composite score of 36, the highest possible score on the ACT exam, is equivalent to a perfect score. Each of the four ACT sections—English, Math, Reading, and Science—has a score between 1 and 36. The average of these four sector scores, rounded to the closest whole number, is the composite score. Less than 1% of test-takers receive a score of 36, which is a rare and distinguished achievement that indicates a high level of proficiency across all assessed subjects.

Central College is a test-optional college, which implies that applicants to undergraduate admissions do not need to submit standardized test scores (SAT or ACT). Students may still choose to submit test scores if they believe it will help their application. Central College's admissions group evaluates applicants using a holistic review process that includes high school transcripts, letters of recommendation, essays, and extracurricular activities, as well as test scores for students who choose to submit them.

If you have scored a perfect ACT score then you need not give the ACT retest. Also, there is a possibility that you might score less on your second attempt. Also the ACT retest is for those who are dissatisfied with their exam scores and do not qualify for the minimum score band also. Thus, once an applicant has a perfect score on ACT as per his or her and university's requirements there is absolutely no need for them to retake the exam.

Yes, if the applicant feels that they have been marked incorrectly on a correctly answered question on the ACT exam, they can raise a request for score verification. For this they will have to fill up a pdf form and attach a cheque for ACT Customer Support. Once the form is submitted, the applicant's responses will be checked as per the correct score key and match the answers, in case of essay also, they would be evaluated by independent plus qualified readers to check if assessment was done correctly. In case the scores increase or even if they decrease the applicant would get a new score from ACT in both cases.
