Junior Benjamin Farmer earned a superscore of 36 on the ACT®, a national standardized measure of college readiness. Farmer is an alumnus of St. Pius X and Christian Brothers and is the son of Cynthia Farmer.

In addition to his academic achievements, Farmer has contributed his leadership skills as a member of the Mu Alpha Theta board and has participated in the mock trial team.

The ACT® consists of 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 test scores whereas a student’s superscore, a measure introduced in 2016, accounts for the highest score from each subtest from two different testing dates.

Above all, Jesuit relentlessly pursues God’s greater glory. While students’ academic accolades reflect the school’s mission, they are not the mission itself. They instead signify that Blue Jays are becoming the men that they were made to be: men of faith and men for others.

Alongside celebrating students who attain these academic accomplishments, Jesuit also highlights graduating seniors who are named winners of highly selective merit-based national scholarship competitions. Click here to read about more of these students.
