The report includes ACT test results from all 50 states and the District of Columbia.
“The percentage of ACT-tested
graduates who met or surpassed the ACT College Readiness Benchmark in
math—suggesting they are ready to succeed in a first-year college
algebra class—fell to its lowest level since 2004,” the report declared,
with only 40 percent of 2018 graduates meeting the benchmark, “down
from a high of 46% in 2012.”
The average score on the ACT
math test dropped to its lowest level in 20 years — 20.5 on a scale of 1
to 36. American students scored 21.1 in 2012 and 20.7 last year.
