Life can be so uncertain. For instance, you might have to travel with your family during a critical time like the ACT exam. Don’t worry! Don’t cancel the trip! Don’t cancel the exam! You can make both the trip and the test happen. Let’s clear up this one misconception about the ACT.
Myth: You have to take the ACT exam in your hometown.
Fact: You can take the ACT exam anywhere it’s offered.
Example: If you live in Florida, but your family will be vacationing in Tennessee on test day, you can simply select a testing spot in Tennessee. In fact, the ACT is offered in the states, U.S. territories, Puerto Rico, and Canada. If you live outside of those areas mentioned, you would need to find an international testing site. -Dr. Wycondia West
Student-athletes
Four years in high school is a long time to run the ball, throw the ball, hit the ball, dribble the ball, and jump hurdles ONLY to leave high school without a great college SCHOLARSHIP. High schools usually have several star athletes in various sports; nevertheless, they don’t always get scholarships to continue their career in sports. Is it because of low GPA’s, low ACT scores, or no interest in college? Whatever the issue is, four years is still a long time to dedicate your life to a sport, and then it’s over after high school graduation. It happens to students in public schools and private schools. Let’s do better! Let’s challenge educators, coaches, administrators, parents, students, and thought leaders to do better this upcoming school year. Let’s make sure our student-athletes are not beating at the wind for years in high school ONLY to leave empty handed. If they do get a scholarship, let’s make sure it’s not mediocre–barely pays for college or lands them at a college that does not match their athletic ability. Can we do better? I’m in.
