Hi everyone, I'm currently a sophomore thinking of taking the ACT next year. Just curious, is there an age limit for when you can take the exam?
There is no age limit for taking the ACT. The exam is designed primarily for high school students, but people of any age can register and take the test. As a sophomore, you'll be well within the typical age range for ACT test-takers. It's a good idea to start preparing early and take the exam during your junior year, as this gives you ample time to retake it if necessary and work on improving your scores before college application deadlines. Good luck!
