The only solution is to apply for another ACT exam date. Students must ensure that they are applying in time. Or go for late registration if option is available.

There are different types of ACT registration fees for students. Candidates need to pay an additional USD 40 as a late registration fee for the ACT if they register after the regular deadline.

Around USD 48 is charged as "Change Fee" for requesting a change your test centre or date after registering for your ACT exam.

Submitting ACT or SAT scores is optional for undergraduate admission at WCU. International First-year applicants have an option to submit either the SAT or the ACT score. The UNC Board of Governors voted to extend the current testing waiver for students applying for admissions through Fall 2024. Therefore, students have the option to submit an ACT or SAT test score, however test scores are not required for admission decisions at this time.

If you have scored a perfect ACT score then you need not retake it. Retake option for ACT is for those who scored lower than they expected and if they may not get admission. You might score less on your second attempt. ACT retest is for those who are dissatisfied with their exam scores. Once an applicant has a perfect score on ACT as per university's requirements there is absolutely no need for them to retake the exam.

Maths is all about practice and ACT Math syllabus tests all major topics tested in high school. Thus, there is only one solution, begin preparing for ACT Maths section well before time, as soon as you leave school and look for some good resources to brush up your basics. Once your basics are clear you will not face issues in cracking the ACT Math section questions. Maths for weaker students may be laborious but preparing for it before hand with ample practice can prove beneficial. One should begin Maths section preparation atleast three months prior to ACT exam date.

Applicants should begin preparing for ACT exam a month or two prior to the ACT exam date preferably. However, those applicants who are weaker in any of the four sections of either Reading, Writing, Maths or Science can begin preparing for ACT slightly earlier based on their previous knowledge or preparation. Max to max one should keep atleast two months in hand in this scenario. Plus more time would be needed to attempt mocks as well.

ACT English section syllabus is based on reading comprehension and understanding of the text plus consequently answering the questions. There are other questions based on the applicant's knowledge in English language's sentence structure & formation, punctuation and how the language is used. The ACT English syllabus also includes the students to review and edit complex texts so that they are coherent and make more sense. Thus, there's mostly about how the language is put to use.
