Perfect ACT Powers

The ACT is a test juniors and seniors dread to take. The four hours spent on timed sections of questions is mind-boggling. However, to one student, the ACT was a breeze. Senior Matthew Armstrong got a perfect score of 36 on his final ACT.

“It took a little bit to set in what I actually just done, but it was super cool when I found out,” Armstrong said. “I didn’t think I was actually going to get it. I was preparing myself to see a 35 or a 34. I saw a 36 and I was so happy.”

Armstrong’s name has been announced a multitude of times on the intercom. Students listening in may wonder what it took to get such a great score.

“You [have to] know everything on the ACT if you want to get a 36 but make sure you have all the basis on the topics,” Armstrong said. “The one I took definitely felt easier then some of them, but during the test, you never know if it’s suspiciously easy.”
