Sanchez, Edgar I.
ACT, Inc.
This data byte explores students' open-ended responses about how the coronavirus pandemic has impacted them academically. Students commented on the impact to their opportunities for taking the ACT® test; issues of time related to taking the test, preparing for the test, and college admissions deadlines; and the greater demands being placed on them by both school and work. This analysis provides a snapshot into students' experiences during the coronavirus pandemic in June 2020. This work compliments other ACT studies of the pandemic's impact.
