Goals of today’s presentation Introduce College and Career Readiness (CCR) standards and what they mean to you Introduce College and Career Readiness (CCR) benchmarks for EXPLORE Begin comparing your EXPLORE results with the CCR benchmarks Examine next steps and conversations you can have with your parents

How do we define College and Career Readiness? The acquisition of the knowledge and skills a student needs to enroll in and succeed in credit-bearing first-year courses at a postsecondary institution (such as a two- or four-year college, trade school, or technical school) without the need for remediation.

What do my EXPLORE benchmark scores mean to me? What do we mean by “a high probability of success?” Why these courses? English Composition, College Algebra, and Biology are the first credit-bearing courses most commonly taken by first-year college students. Course placement data also show that reading achievement is most closely aligned with success in credit-bearing courses in college. Students who meet a benchmark on ACT EXPLORE or ACT PLAN are likely to have approximately this same chance of earning such a grade in the corresponding college course(s) by the time they graduate high school.

What are the ACT College Readiness Benchmarks? College Course or Course Area Test Explore Score (Range 1-25) Plan Score (Range 1-32) ACT Score (Range 1-36) ACT Compass English Composition English 13 15 18 77 Social Sciences Reading 16 22 88 College Algebra Math 17 19 52 Biology Science 20 23 n/a
