ACT with Writing

The ACT w/Writing is the Capstone of ACT College and Career Readiness Solutions and is aligned to Alabama's College and Career Readiness Standards.  It assesses reading, math, English and writing.  Scores are college-reportable.

If you register for the full ACT with writing, you will take the writing section after the four multiple-choice sections. Your score in the writing section will not affect your scores on the multiple-choice or your Composite score.

The writing section is a 40-minute essay test that measures your writing skills—specifically, writing skills taught in high school English classes and in entry-level college composition courses.
