Part III ACT Recommended Coursework ACT research suggests that students today do not have a reasonable chance of becoming ready for college unless they take additional higher-level courses beyond the minimum core, and even then they are not always likely to be ready for college. This finding is in part a reflection on the quality and intensity—the rigor—of the high school curriculum. Without improving the quality and content of the core, it appears that most students need to take additional higher-level courses to learn what they should have learned from a rigorous core curriculum, with no guarantee even then that they will be prepared for college-level work. ACT Minimum Core English: 4 years Social Studies: At least 3 years Mathematics: At least 3 yearsNatural Sciences: At least 3 years Part I: Academic Achievement Part II

ACT College Readiness Benchmark Scores Through collaborative research with postsecondary institutions nationwide, ACT has established the following College Readiness Benchmark Scores: A benchmark score is the minimum score needed on an ACT subject area test to indicate a 50% chance of obtaining a B or higher or about a 75% chance of obtaining a C or higher in the corresponding credit-bearing college courses.

Part II Part III Early Indicators of College Readiness ACT’s College Readiness System: provides aligned, achievement-based assessments at three key transition points for students – EXPLORE ® for 8th and 9th graders – PLAN ® for 10th graders – The ACT ® for 11th and 12th graders supports efforts to encourage more rigorous college-preparatory course taking and promote career planning provides longitudinal tracking of the college readiness of students and cohorts Part I Oregon — Class of 2008 The following results pertain to all 8th- and 10th-grade students in Oregon who participated in EXPLORE and/or PLAN during the academic year 2007–08.

EXPLORE and PLAN College Readiness Benchmark Scores The EXPLORE and PLAN College Readiness Benchmark Scores are based on the ACT College Readiness Benchmark Scores. They reflect students’ expected growth from EXPLORE to PLAN to the ACT and assume sustained academic effort throughout high school. They provide an important indicator of whether students are on track for college readiness.
