ACT after senior year?

Test Preparation ACT Preparation

<p>Hi, many here know a lot more about the college admissions process than I do. I'm thinking about a plan, not sure if it's been done before. I also have some questions about its implementation.</p>

<p>I think that right now my ECs are top notch and can't get too much better. My recs and essays are strong. However, my scores, while decent, aren't good enough for top schools. I'm a senior in HS right now. Can I take a year off from college and use it to get some job experience and have solid time for test prep. Then can I apply for freshman admission to various top schools next year?</p>

<p>Can one take tests like SAT/ACT after senior year's finished? Has this been done before and successfully?</p>

<p>thanks</p>

<p>Yes, you can take the SAT/ACT after senior year is finished. I have a friend who is taking this year to settle down and is planning on starting her freshman year at CalTech next year. She took the SAT in November. :)</p>
