PJ Media:
The creators of the ACT test announced on Wednesday that scores
for the class of 2018 are the worst reported in decades. Math scores, in
fact, are in freefall among ACT-tested U.S. high school graduates,
falling to their lowest mark in 14 years, according to The Condition of
College and Career Readiness 2018, the ACT’s annual report.
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.
Thank you Liberals!
