I got a 30 on my ACT. I feel like that says that I am good at specifically what the ACT was testing for. Besides that, my score doesn’t really say much about me academically. School performance is based on other factors that standardized testing doesn’t measure.

I think that your test scores show you how you may excel in a certain subject such as math, reading, science and english, however they don’t show overarching factors like anxiety and stress that can impact the score that you get. I believe your ability to communicate and creativity impact your potential and school performance more than your standardized test scores. These skills I believe can drive you further in life, because ultimately, your test scores will be forgotten when you’re older.

I got a 28 on my act, this score says that I am okay at standardized testing, these scores also say I won’t qualify for money off at the university of Tennessee, what these scores don’t show is my study habits and how hard I work for the good grades I have. Some factors that also affect potential are your work ethic, use of resources, and environment.

1. my standardized test scores say that I am doing pretty well in terms of intelligence right now.

2. However, test scores do not neccesarily say I'll do well in college because test scores can't really predict future outcomes.

3. There are a lot of other important factors that reflect school performance and potential, like GPA and recommendation letters.

Personally, all that my standardized tests tell me is that I am a bad test taker. I do not think my standardized test results reflect my knowledge nor my overall understanding of anything in school. My scores do not portray my personality, what I like to do, what I love, and who I am. I think things such as environment and preparation affect your potential of good scores, not how smart or kind you are which is not okay.

I got a pretty high score on my ACT and a relatively high one on my SAT. I think they show that I’m proficient at basic and advanced mathematics and reading/language comprehension. I don’t really thinks it shows how well I will do in college, since a factor that determines one’s success on college is work ethic, which is not measured by the ACT or SAT. Other factors like how I manage stress or how well organized I am, or how good I am with time management also effect my school performance, none of which are measured on standardized tests.

My standardized tests tell me how well and what I have learned in basic subjects like math, science, English, and reading. What they don’t show is my creativity, leadership skills, or my real-life problem solving skills. Other factors that impact potential or school performance, in my opinion, are you communication and management skills. If you can’t communicate well with others you may not be able to get as good of a job as you hope.

My standardized test scores say how I felt that day and the knowledge I could recall in that moment. However, my scores do not say anything about my overall intelligence and the information I have learned throughout the time I was given to learn. Other factors such as GPA, school/community involvement, and good character stand out in school performance and future potential as well.

My scores say that I am an anxious test taker and that I don’t always understand the language or grammar used in the sentences. My scores don’t say anything about what I do to give back to the community, my GPA, or what I do as extracurriculars for school.

My high standardized test scores show that I am good at using logic and reasoning to identify correct answers, and that I have good language skills. However, they don’t show any of my creativity, passion, or ability to work with others. School performance does rely a lot on test-taking abilities because of how grades are set up, however, especially in college and beyond, those skills are not as important as social, emotional, and creative skills. Success should not only be defined by grades and test scores, but also by interpersonal connection, passion, and creativity.

My standardized test score says that I excel most in math and struggle most in science. But my standardized test does not show that I have a much better grade in my science class or my critical thinking skills. Other factors that affect your potential and school performance are motivation as well as your environment. If you don’t have motivation it is not likely you will succeed in college. Your grades are also a way to tell how successful you might be in college because there might be a pattern.

I think the ACT is important but shouldn’t just be used solely to determine how a student will perform in college. Their GPA which comes straight from the students grades, essays and teacher recs are just as important too because they directly show how the student has been performing in school. I don’t think it’s fair to use this kind of testing to make come to a conclusion about all students performance for college, in some areas it’s most definitely a good representation of the student and how they’ll likely perform but for others that may not be the case because of the kind of testing. It doesn’t say a lot about them academically and what kind of a student they are personally.

I think that my standardized test said about me was that I was a bit above average but that I lacked a lot of knowledge in math. What it didn’t say about me was that I was bad at the reading section. I think that there were multiple factors that affected me but mostly that I was really nervous to take the test because I was worried if it wasn’t going to be good enough for colleges and also just the fact that I knew I wasn’t the best at certain subjects which made me feel nervous for the outcome.

My test scores say that I am above average in math, average in science, and very above average in English and reading. My scores don’t say that I can write well and apply learned topics into academic environments, conversation, and the real world. Factors other than my aptitude that can affect my potential are my ability to focus and encode information into my long term memory. GPA and reccomendation letters also can because they reflect skill and intelligence in “normal” environment.

1. My test score says how dumb I might be on math and science. But they don't say how respectful, empathetic, kind, and friendly I am. They don’t define/describe who I am as a person.

2. I think how easily you get distracted or like who surrounds you.

I believe my standardized test scores reflect my intelligence and readiness for college to an extent. I personally did not hire a tutor, or frankly, even study for the ACT. However I still finished with a good enough score of 28. I think that the ACT can reflect how good someome is at test taking under high pressure situation, and how much prior knowledge someome may have on the topics, but I don’t believe it says much after that. It doesn’t say much about how creative or a person is or their ability to interact with others, which is huge for real world jobs. I also don’t think it can predict very accurate how well someone will do in college. Factors other than your aptitude that will affect your potential is obviously how much of a hard worker you are, your creativeness, or your social awareness.

# data[].attributes.body
My test scores say that I am an average test taker, but they do not say how I am a hard worker and reliable student which my GPA and recommendation letters reflect. Another factor that affects my potential and school performance is my self-efficacy. When taking tests, it’s difficult to believe in myself and I often get anxiety.

Standardized testing shows that I am a bad student and am below average. What it doesn’t show. Is that I am an extremely hardworking individual. Other than the aptitude affect, I think my school performance has been very poor for various reasons outside of the aptitude affect.

My standard test scores typically show that I’m good at English stuff, with me have previously gotten no answers wrong on the reading section for a practice ACT, which can help show that I’m more well versed.

My scores also show that I’m not good at math, which isn’t accurate to me, it doesn’t show some of the work I put behind it.

Some factors that may affect my performance could be time I spend on it or how stressed or focused I am.

# data[].attributes.body
As someone who happens to be good at test taking, my standardized tests prove this, as I am usually in the 90th percentile or higher. The tests don’t show how nervous I get when taking them, knowing that the number I receive will impact my future, how collaborative I am, or how much I work towards goals. Factors like my commitments and schedule affect my school performance, as sometimes finding space to do my homework amidst all other things I’m doing is impossible. I know these tests do not define me, but there’s still a lot of pressure surrounding a number.

I think the ACT scores can matter of who you are because it test you stuff in school that Highschool has prepare for you even since freshman year math , reading and science . But in the test it doesn’t show how much work you put or how organize you can be. In the hand it might yea if you got a good score give some money for colleges .

My high test score show that I am a good test taker when it is multiple choice questions in the basic areas it tests on. It says nothing about my future grades in college, because a lot can change, and has nothing to do with the major I am going into or my future jobs. It also doesn’t say anything about my social skills or anything that is arguably more important for the future. My motivation highly affects potential and performance.

I don't know what I got on the ACT, but no matter what I got on it, the ACT doesn't define who I am as a person and how intelligent I am in other criteria and not just academically. The ACT shows us only how intelligent we are a academically, and NOT how intelligent we are with other criteria. It is like the video that we watched in class last class, one can have an extremely smart brain while still being last place or anywhere OTHER than first place. It doesn't tell us how well we are with relationships, even sports or instruments of any kind. Literally any art or fine art of any kind--where is the check on that kind of intelligence? No, schools just have to focus on the academics rather than of who we are and our potential. Regardless of what any of us got an the ACT, we are intelligent in so many other, more important, things.

I think standardized testing shouldn’t define a person because it could alter depending on the persons personal life circumstances and the standarized test doesn’t show other aspects in what the person taking the test is good in
