Yes, students can appear for the ACT exam on two different test dates in the same month. There is no hard and fast rule to appear for the ACT only once a month, prospective applicants are free to give the ACT as many times as they wish to and at whatever dates they are willing to. Sometimes, the ACT dates may vary and two dates may not be available in a month, hence the applicants can check for the next possible dates for appearing for the exam.

If the applicant mistakenly reaches the wrong ACT exam centre right before the exam begins, he/she should try and reach the correct exam centre as soon as possible.

One must know where to reach, in how much time and through which medium of transportation at the ACT exam centre.
