Article Image Alt Text

The Louisiana School for Math, Science, and the Arts’s (LSMSA) class of 2018 posted a composite score of 29.2 on the national college admissions and placement test, far exceeding state average ACT scores.

This score ties with class of 2015 and class of 2016’s scores as the highest composite ACT score in the school’s history.

It was reported that the state’s average composite score was 19.2, a decrease from last year’s score of 19.5.

“State levels keep going down while our levels keep going up,” said LSMSA’s Executive Director Steven Horton. “That says a lot!”

The ACT is scored on a scale of 1 to 36, with 36 being the highest possible score. Students also receive scores in four individual testing areas, which are combined for the composite score. The individual testing areas are English, mathematics, reading and science.
