2022-23 Data resources will be posted as they become available.

About the Data

PreACT logo
The PreACT Secure assesses grade 9 and 10 students’ readiness in English, Mathematics, Reading, and Science.  Results are reported on a 2-digit score scale and are compared to ACT Benchmarks to determine whether students are on track to meet college-ready benchmarks. 2-digit scores are also reported for an overall composite score (average of the English, Reading, Mathematics and Science scores) and STEM score (average of the Mathematics and Science scores).

S Wisconsin's PreACT Secure Performance Level Scale Score Ranges

Coming Fall 2023 

ACT's PreACT Secure Readiness Benchmarks

ACT has established PreACT Secure Readiness Benchmarks that are linked to the ACT College Readiness Benchmarks. These Benchmarks are independent of Wisconsin’s PreACT Secure Performance Level Scale Scores that are used for state accountability.

Students scoring at or above the Readiness Benchmark in grades 9-10 are on target to meet the corresponding ACT College Readiness Benchmark in grade 11. The ACT College Readiness Benchmarks are the ACT scores that represent the level of achievement required for students to have a 50% chance of obtaining a B or higher or about a 75-80% chance of obtaining a C or higher in corresponding credit-bearing courses.

Cautions

Note that no single test can tell us whether students have learned everything that is important for students to learn. Additional local evidence should be reviewed for a more complete picture of student learning.
