What happens when you get a 36 on the ACT?

Question:I have heard they make you retake the test to make sure you didn't cheat. If you don't get a 36 the second time, say a 32, they take that score instead. Is that true?



Answers:
I don't think that's true. There is no way a person could cheat on the ACT. Don't let this worry you. I've never heard of anyone making a 36. I have heard of people making perfect on their SAT, and they weren't required to retake that test. So go ahead, make a 36. Even if you did have to retake it, you could probably do it again.
Just because the overwhelming majority of students these days do not take education seriously and "bomb" the ACT does not mean that no one is allowed to do well. If you get a perfect score of 36 on the ACT, nothing happens. You are not required to take it again so they can make sure you "didn't cheat." Yes, cheating is impossible on the ACT, as each test is slightly different. Also, new editions of the test are printed off so often now that it would be hard to keep up with the circulation of any certain test long enough to cheat. And no, colleges look at the highest score you got, no matter the case.

Hope this helps and that you did well! ;-)
I don't think that they would make you retake it. I think that you would have Harvard and Yale begging at your doorstep to accept scholarships!
