ACT/PreACT Information
ACT testing is now the required testing for Illinois.
Why is it important that our students grow and do their best on the ACT?
MCHS provides learning and prep opportunities to help students grow over their four year career. It is MCHS’ goal to help ALL STUDENTS get their BEST SCORE to OPEN DOORS. Doing well on the ACT benefits students in the following ways.
Getting YOUR BEST ACT SCORE is beneficial because….
MCHS uses your PreACT/ACT scores as one piece of data in course selection.
You could be eligible for Distinguished Warrior and/or Seal of Biliteracy.
You could gain admission to additional Colleges and Universities you never thought possible
You could earn scholarships that help make college more affordable
You could avoid being required to take remedial courses at your 4-year or 2-year college (like MCC).
These are the same skills that employers in industry and trades expect you to have.
These are the same skills that the military expects you to have.
If you are going into the military, preparing for the ACT will help you score better on the ASVAB test.
If you get a better score on the ASVAB then more jobs in the military are open to you.
You might change your mind about college or your desired profession your senior year.
MCHS wants you to have all doors open!
