Methodology: How did we come up with these percentiles? To calculate them, we used official data released by the ACT that gives the exact number of students who earned certain scores. Using that information, we summed the exact number of students to get the percentile. Within a single score group (e.g. students scoring exactly a 34), we presume exactly half are above.

Methodology: How did we calculate the percentiles? We used real official data released by the College Board on the exact number of students who earned a certain score. Then, we summed the exact number of students (not a survey, not an estimate, the exact number of students to the single individual) to get the percentile. Within a score group (e.g. those scoring exactly 2110), we presume exactly half are above, and half are below, so that 600 does not correspond to 0.0000 percentile, nor does a perfect 2400 correspond to 100.0000 percentile exactly.
