2. 1. 什么是ACT拼分?

3. 首先，介绍一下什么是ACT拼分(ACT superscoring，下文中简化为“拼分”)。ACT拼分是指大学或学院通过提取申请人在不同考试日期考出的ACT成绩的最高单项分(ACT subscore)，利用这些最高单项分计算出的新的更高的ACT平均分(ACT Composite Score)，这个新的ACT Composite score就是ACT拼分(ACT superscore)。

2. 具体是怎样拼分的?

例如，假设一个学生四月考出的ACT成绩是阅读29分，数学27分，英语28分，科学31分。这些单项分换算成ACT平均分是29分。这个考生又参加了六月的ACT考试，考试成绩分别是阅读32分，数学25分，英语29分，科学29分。他的六月的ACT平均分也是29。也就是说，他的四月份平均分和六月份平均分都是29分，只是每次的单项分不同。如果一所大学实施ACT拼分的话，这所大学就会从这两次考试的单项分里，提取每个单项的最高成绩，也就是阅读的32分，数学的27分，英语的29分和科学的31分。这种单项分数的结合造就了一个新的平均分30分，这就是通过拼分得到的分数。

我们可以看到，通过拼分，平均分提高了一分!也就是说，通过拼分得到的ACT平均分总会等于或大于任何单次ACT成绩的平均分。对于ACT考试次数超过1次的考生来说，应该是个好事。

3. 接受ACT拼分的美国大学有哪些?

最近，一些学校开始对ACT成绩进行了拼分。大学或学院对ACT成绩进行拼分并不处于一个静止的状态，而是在实时变化的，所以，对ACT成绩进行拼分的院校的具体数量也会变动。数据显示，截止2015年8月18日，下列名单上的院校都应该接受ACT拼分。不在名单上的院校，代表没有得到任何关于拼分的信息。
