Hey there! I took the CLT exam, but my target schools require ACT scores. Is there a way to convert my CLT score to an ACT score, or a resource that can help me find the equivalent? Thanks!
Hello! While there isn't a direct conversion table provided by the organizations that administer the CLT and ACT, you can still get a rough estimate of how your CLT score compares to an ACT score. This can be done by using the percentile rankings provided by both the CLT and ACT.
Here's what you can do:
1. Look up the percentile rank that corresponds with your CLT score. The CLT usually provides this information on their website or in your score report.
2. Then, refer to the ACT's percentile rank chart to find an ACT score that corresponds to the same percentile rank as your CLT score. You can find this chart on the ACT's official website.
Keep in mind that this method only offers a rough estimate of the equivalent ACT score and may not represent a perfect comparison. Besides, admissions officers at different schools may use their own methods to compare scores between different standardized tests. To get the most accurate results, it is recommended that you take the ACT to meet your target schools' requirements. Good luck!
