ACT Writing Section Highlights

• The essay is optional but we encourage all students to take it. Many universities now request an essay score.
• Higher scoring essays tend to be at least 1 1/2 – 2 pages in length.
• Grammar counts!

Selected Tips & Strategies

• The ACT essay is given as the last section. You will have 40 minutes to plan and write a coherent essay.
• You must use clear penmanship, correct grammar, and accurate punctuation. If your essay looks like a 3rd grader wrote it, you will be scored accordingly.
