Federally cap the price of the ACT test to a maximum of $20. This is so students can afford to take it multiple times.

Created by M.R. on October 29, 2015

At the current point in time, there are many promising young students who want to take the ACT standardized test a second or third time in hopes of scoring higher. Many of these students are opting out of taking it again because of its ridiculously high price. The Test costs about $90 to take as of now. There is no way you could expect a low income household to spend $180 to have a chance of raising a score two points. By lowering this price to a maximum of $20 you could easily ensure that these promising students could take the test multiple times while at a financially comfortable point. The ACT could also make up for the drop in price because more people would be taking it multiple times.
