Myths & Facts
Myth Fact
CBT is a completely different testing experience.
While computer-based ACT testing is a new format, the content of the test itself WILL NOT CHANGE. It's simply a new, more efficient way to take the test. Examinees will still take the test in a proctored test environment. The good news is they'll receive scores much faster and have more opportunities to test.

Myths & Facts
Myth Fact
Preparing for the paper exam is different from preparing for the CBT.
Not at all! First of all, the best way to prepare for the ACT is taking rigorous courses and studying hard at school. Also, all previously existing free and paid ACT test prep tools--like ACT Academy, PreACT, ACT Online Prep, or The Official ACT Prep Guide--will fully prepare you for the content of the test. Best of all, CBT practice tests are now available so you can get the full CBT test prep experience!

Myths & Facts
Myth Fact
My region won't have a CBT testing center.
ACT is working with international partners to secure test center locations in every region of the globe, and we'll continue this rollout after the CBT launches in September. You can find a test center near you when you register to take the test.

Myths & Facts
Myth Fact

Myths & Facts
Myth Fact
If my test center loses power or technology malfunctions, my score will be affected.
ACT test centers have the technology to save your progress and return to the test, should a power outage or other technology malfunction occur. All data related to your ACT test progress is continuously downloaded to a locally based computer into a cache in case mishaps occur.

Lessons Learned
• New registration system impacts users who intend on registering in a test center that is outside the United States
• International Users who have tested prior to September 2018 will continue to use the old system to see scores and order score reports
• New registration system requires a new account to be created. Your UserID from the old system will NOT work on MyACT
