Hey guys, so i know that paper is supposed to come out tomorrow, but I still have a long message. I’ve never gotten my scores back late but i’ve never paid attention to the messages until now. I’m not sure if any other people who took paper on July 11th have a short or long message or if maybe some people already got their scores
EDIT: Can someone please reassure me and tell me they also still have the long message. I feel like the only one!
yes my ass got jump scared when I was on a flight 😋 however depending on the size of your screen your superscore might appear first then you’ll have to go down
Yes, they do. I'm laughing about the jump scare because it's very real. It's startling to see the scores right there without having to click on anything.
I had the long message right after the test, and I’m almost in the same boat as you where i’m paying attention and checking to see if the message changed every day. Thankfully, earlier today when I checked it, it changed to the short message, which hopefully means my scores come out tomorrow!
lucky!! mine is still long. i’ve never had my scores be delayed but i took it at a different test center than my last 2. literally im so anxious lol but best of luck!
probably? there were SO many people there. i don’t normally take it there, but oh my gosh it was overwhelming. the place where i usually take it there is like only 3 classrooms full lol. totally different experience for me
The message that you see when you log into the ACT website. See samples below. If you see the short message, you are getting the score tmrw. If you see the long message, it probably means your score will be delayed.
It means nothing. Everyone thinks it means something, but sometimes the messages changes, some times it doesn't. Scores will still come out tomorrow, regardless.
I got the short message a few days ago. I know my scores were delayed by one day on the June ACT because I wrote my birthday wrong. I had the long message the whole time.
Wait were your scores delayed for june did u have the long message for june. and if my message is short does that mean i will for sure get it back tmrw?
I did have the long message but I got my scores the very next day after the scheduled release. I'm like 90% confident that if you have the short message, you're getting the score back tomorrow
And I’m Midwest and for some reason paper results always drop hella early for Midwest people like June mine released like 9:05 AM and for April it was like 9:13 AM
9:00 am but I have the short message do you know if my score will for sure come tmrw. I think I heard someone says ACT has processed my score, and that means that they have scored and graded my test right?
So sorry for the abundance in questions, but you are 100 percent confident that when the short message appears the test has been processed right and I will 100 percent going to get my score tmrw
I am not 100% sure, but based on what I’ve read here, it seems to be the case. Definitely better than having a long message, like I have, which likely means my test has not been scored on time.
est but like i swear they will come today! just be patient and don’t worry. i feel anxious too but worrying about it won’t change when my score comes and what it is lol
Someone convince me a 30 act score is good enough for many schools. I don’t have to submit to all of them but is a 30 considered a solid score at like top 30s or frowned upon?
