<p>Will colleges discard the score of 20 since it was my first ACT compared to the 28 which was the second?</p>
<p>Would the improvement look good?</p>
<p>Would having a 28 on the first one look better?</p>
<p>That’s a great improvement, and they’ll just look at the 28.</p>
<p>they look at the highest score. I had received a 21 on my first attempt. DePaul did not offer me a scholarship. When I eventually got a 29, they offered me the Dean’s Scholarship (50k).</p>
<p>The OP already had his low ACT score (20) sent to colleges by his GC (was an accident). I think this might change things.</p>
<p>Really it will? This isn’t fair at all… Since I’m a junior can I tell my counselor and is it possible for her to retrieve the score?</p>
<p>The best score is what is taken into account. Do better next time and colleges will take that score over the lower one.</p>
<p>^Yeah I guess this guy is right. It’s still better off to have only a 28 sent though. Good luck!</p>
<p>I don’t know if having a lower score as well will affect the decision, but most colleges I know of only care about your highest composite. That’s the policy for the college I applied to.</p>
<p>i sent DePaul all four of my scores: 21, 22, 24, 29; I ended up receiving the Dean’s Scholarship…I don’t think they care much for the lower scores.</p>
<p>Yo kid, you bumped this thread for no reason and ur just being a jerk. Find something better to do than boast about how you’re better at a standardized test than some other dude on the internet.</p>
<p>Nevermind, i hadn’t realized that he was ■■■■■■■■ before. Still, that was a little harsh, kid. and you did bump it for no reason.</p>
