hey guys i have quick question. i apologize if it sounds dumb but i am honestly confused. for one of my supplemental i was asked about the ACT scores from my highschool days. It says to input V, M, S.S., N.S., and composite scores for the ACT.

Im not sure what the S.S. and the N.S. and V are referring to. The composite is obvious, im thinking M is Math. If someone can help me figure out what S.S, and N.S are I would really appreciate it! Also is the V representing the reading or english? Thanks!
 
"The tests lettered E, Q, SS, NS, L, V and SI refer, respectively, to (Engligh) Correctness and Appropriateness of Expression, Quantitative Thinking, Social Studies, Natural Sciences, Interpretation of Literature, General Vocabulary, and Sources of information."

This refers to old tests but I'm guessing the acronyms stand for the same now.
