28 is a very good ACT score! The highest ACT score possible is a 36. The average ACT score is around 20, so a 28 is well-above average. Only 12 percent of test-takers score under a 28 on the ACT.

Highly-selective colleges usually admit students with ACT scores ranging of 27-31. Colleges that are a bit less selective usually look for ACT scores in the 25-29 range. The most-selective colleges look for applicants whose ACT scores fall in the 32-36 range.

How do I improve my ACT score?

Strategic preparation can improve ACT scores significantly. If you've already taken the ACT, look at your scores for each of the four sections. If you haven't taken the test yet, take an ACT practice test to see where you're already strong and where you can improve.

Then, schedule time to study and practice in the areas where you have room to improve. Schedule shorter blocks of time to review your strong areas. This ACT prep strategy can help you get the best score possible.
