Hey guys, I'm thinking about taking the ACT soon, but I'm not sure where I can actually go to take it. Do they offer it at local high schools or are there designated testing centers? Can anyone help me out?
Hey! The ACT is typically administered at local high schools and designated testing centers. To find a testing location near you, visit the ACT's official website (act.org) and go to the "Find a Test Center" page. There, you'll be able to search for test centers by entering your zip code or city and state. The website will show you a list of available test centers, along with their addresses and any specific test dates they offer.
Keep in mind that test center availability may vary depending on the test date, so it's essential to register early to secure a spot at your preferred location. Also, be prepared to travel a bit if you live in a rural area, as there might not be a testing center located directly in your town.
Lastly, don't forget to double-check the test center's COVID-19 guidelines, as they can vary and may require you to take additional safety precautions, such as wearing a mask or providing a negative test result.
Good luck with your ACT preparations!
