ACT score situation

<p>so last june i took the ACT and scored
C:28
E:27
M:31
R:28
S:26</p>

<p>After recieving these scores, I practiced hard for the English and did some practice for Reading and Science. I took the ACT in september and these were my results.
C:27
E:30
M:31
R:21..??????
S:27</p>

<p>I had never gotten below a 27 on the 4 practice tests i had taken. (Usually 28)
With that said, l felt that i didnt do great on the test and had to guess on about 5 on this section but seriously...a 21? I truely feel that a 28 is indicative of my ability, not a 21. </p>

<p>How do you think this will affect my chance of admission...I feel that my only shortcoming happens to be me test scores..Does anyone have any advice for me. Id really appreciate any help or would like to hear about others with similar experiences .</p>

<p>The schools I am applying to:
Air Force Academy
UNC Chapel Hill OOS
Wake Forest
Miami
Virginia Tech OOS
University of San Diego
Texas A&M OOS</p>

<p>28 is 90 Percentile many conversion charts are very old. A 28 places you in the top 10% of test takers. I would assume as long as you have good essays and other parts of your application are solid you seem competitive.</p>
