The ACT comprises four multiple-choice subject tests-English, mathematics, reading and science-and takes about three hours, plus breaks, to complete. An optional writing test, which takes an additional 30 minutes, is also available. Students who want to take the writing portion should register for the ACT Plus Writing.
