I like them to focus on a test that's like the ACT but the one thing the test wouldn't have is the time limit of the test.

Colleges should look for GPA, involvement in clubs in the school and involvement in the community.

GPA. GPA is a big factor in highschool because its what grades the students made in the class and its there overall GPA in highschool. It is what the students keep up with through there highschool career.

Focus on “hard factors” (GPA, grades, and test scores) and “soft factors” (essays, extracurricular activities, recommendations, and demonstrated interest) to gain a full picture of applicants.

They should focus on recommendations from teachers that have worked with said student.

GPA and college essay. I think the students college essay should be very impactful because you hear what they are really about. GPA is also very important because it shows how the student academically performs.

I know for Art colleges go by art portfolio as well as ACT but the ACT isn't just one thing they're looking at. So if they weren't looking at ACT then they should go by portfolios, essays, high school grades, GPA, extracurricular we've been in, and attendance.

They should focus on ur GPA. act tests are mad confusing so they should go off of how good we actually are and not on a district-made test

they should care about GPA. Act scores really shouldn't matter at all.

If colledes stopped looking at ACT scores then they should start looking at grades.

If colleges stopped looking at ACT scores, they should start focusing on a person's interest in the subject they want to pursue such as, art, medication, or even science. They should also look into extracurricular activities/groups/organizations the student has partaken in. College essays are also a great way to learn what the students' intentions are and how in-depth their interests are for their desired majors.

The main focus when admitting for a college instead of the act should be on you as a person. In my opinion, the act score does not tell someone about you. If colleges wanted to know how you will do at their school they can look at your grades or behavioral status.

Colleges should focus on the students overall grade and how their grades improved or declined over the 4 years of high school that way they can see if the student will improve the school test scores for the college.

GPA and attendance becuase giving a high requirment many people will be filtered out

I think they would start focusing in on grades and performance in junior and senior years in high school, not everyone can take the ACT as well as

others.

If colleges stopped looking at ACT scores, I think that they would look at your grades, GPA, and extra activities that you're in

If colleges stopped looking at ACT scores, I believe that they should focus more on GPA and extracurricular activities. I say that because those honestly matter way more than the ACT could ever. The ACT doesn't even estimate how much you know. The ACT is there to just estimate test taking skills and time management. You can be one of the smartest kids ever and have horrible test taking anxiety. Meanwhile, your GPA at school reflects all the hard work you put in, all the assignments you have aced, and just an actual showcase of your knowledge compared to a 4 hour test. With extracurricular activities, colleges should really start to looking at that because involved students are some of the best students that there is. If you have a 3.7 GPA and are involved in like 8 clubs, I think that shows way more than a 30+ on the ACT could mean.
