What happens if I don’t take the ACT?

In Ohio, you are required to take the ACT, but there is nothing that says anything about what happens if you don’t show up for the test. I do not plan on going to college and was under the impression that this test was optional.

This is done so the state can brag about it’s ACT scores. Of course, you’re mostly middle class, and you’ll do fine- compared to the states with higher poverty rates. I don’t know what they’ve written in to this as the consequence of not taking the test- there must be one. If you’re sure that it doesn’t affect your grade and it’s not required for graduation, don’t go. ... Show More
It may be required to graduate high school. I don’t know what it is.   Call the school or see your counselor, and ask. ... Show More
