What is the PLAN?
The PLAN is ACT's College Readiness Exam for 10th graders. It gives students the opportunity to "pre-test" before taking the ACT as a junior.

The PLAN is a comprehensive guidance resource that helps students measure their current academic development, explore career/training options, and make plans for the remaining years of high school and post-graduation years.

What is on the PLAN?
The PLAN assessment consists of four academic achievement tests and other key components.

English 50 items 30 minutes
Mathematics 40 items 40 minutes
Reading 25 items 20 minutes
Science 30 items 25 minutes

 

These curriculum-based tests cover the skills and knowledge that are commonly taught in the nation's schools and are judged to be important for success in both high school and college. The tests measure what students know and what they are able to do with their knowledge

Who should take the PLAN?
The content of the PLAN tests is closely tied to that of the achievement tests in the ACT, which is broadly used for college entrance and placement decisions.  If you are a sophomore and are considering a postsecondary education, it is recommended that you take the PLAN
