What happens if I don’t take the ACT?

In Ohio, taking the ACT is a requirement, but there doesn’t seem to be any information about the consequences of not attending the test. I’m not planning to go to college and was under the impression that this test was optional. Could someone clarify what happens if I choose not to take the ACT?

You don’t just don’t show up. You will have an unexcused absence from school.  Your parents can tell the school they are not going to have you take the exam.

the test is optional, afaik.  and there is no consequence in terms of graduation high school, afaik.  plenty of community colleges in other states accept students who graduated high school but never took either the ACT or SAT exams.  Vo-tech schools, do too.

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.

It may be required to graduate high school. I don’t know what it is.   Call the school or see your counselor, and ask.
