28 ACT and a 3.7 gpa- top colleges to get into

@coolguy40 Just got in Ohio State so would not necessarily say it is a reach with his
GPA and test score. Also received a sizeable scholarship. Go for it!

@ljberkow I know a direct admit to IU Kelley School of Business who had a 26 ACT. You never know.

Don’t know if anyone is still on this thread, but @ljberkow I would be interested to know what the conditions behind this admission was. Did the student just have a high GPA with low test scores, did he have connections that got him in, or was it just pure luck.

Sorry I meant @camcam2022 if you could look at the comment above that would be greatly appreciated.

@GoCubsGo719 Hi. What is the question?

Hey @camcam2022 I was just wondering what the circumstances behind the direct admit student with a 26 ACT were if any.

Schools now do a holistic review so even institutions like Harvard and Duke may have a student that simply doesn’t standardize test well. Frankly I feel the score shouldn’t be a deal breaker at all.
