CINCINNATI, OH (April 11, 2025) – Archbishop Moeller High School recently announced Kyle Borgemenke of Lebanon earned the highest possible ACT Composite score of 36 on the ACT test.

About one-quarter of 1% of students who take the ACT earn a top score. In the U.S. high school graduation class of 2024, only 3,041 out of 1.37 million students who took the ACT earned a top composite score of 36.

The ACT test consists of section tests in English, mathematics, reading, and science, each scored on a scale of 1-36. A student’s Composite score is the average of the four section test scores. The score for ACT’s optional writing test is reported separately and is not included in the ACT Composite score.

“When a student earns a top score of 36 on the ACT test, it opens doors to a promising future, demonstrating for colleges and universities that they are ready for the challenges ahead,” ACT CEO Janet Goodwin said. “This remarkable achievement is something we celebrate along with the student and their family.”

The ACT test is a curriculum-based achievement exam that measures what students should have had the opportunity to learn in school. Students who earn a top Composite score have likely mastered all the skills and knowledge they will need to success in first-year college courses in the core subject areas.

ACT test scores are accepted by major four-year colleges and universities across the U.S., and they are one of the many criteria that inform admissions, scholarship award, and course placement decisions.
