<p>I understand in general colleges look mainly at the composite for the ACT, but I also see more emphasis put on Math and English.</p>
<p>Does it hurt that my composites 29, but my english is 25 and math is 24 or does my Science and Reading scores being 33's counteract that</p>
<p>? no help …</p>
<p>Many colleges consider math and English to be the more important section scores. A small number, e.g., GTech, Rose Hulman, actually consider only the math and English scores for admission and ignore composite, reading and science. Thus, for many colleges your math and English scores may detract somewhat from the composite.</p>
