ACT w/o reading

[LoriAg]

<p>I took the ACT without the reading portion (scored a 31). Do you know if GT will take the highest scores from each section of my ACT test to get a total composite score for consideration on my application? Or, if they only look at each ACT test (w/writing) as a whole? I am taking the test again in Sept with the writing of course.</p>

<p>According to this:</p>

<p>

Georgia Tech accepts either SAT or ACT test scores with no preference to one over the other. We will consider your highest section scores across all SAT and ACT test dates that you submit. Only your highest section scores in Critical Reading, Math, and Writing (for SAT), and English, Math, and Combined English/Writing (for ACT) will be considered as part of the final admissions decision. Each time you submit scores, Georgia Tech will update your record with your highest scores. View our score choice policy.</p>

<p>Below you will find the latest test date that will be considered in each round, if Georgia Tech is listed to receive your scores at the time you take the test.</p>

<p>October 1 Early Notification - through October
November 1 President’s Scholar Deadline - through November
January 15 Regular Decision - through January</p>

<p>Georgia Tech’s school code for the SAT is 5248, and the code for the ACT is 0818.</p>

<p>Competitive ranges (mid-50%) of SAT scores:
1920-2160</p>

<p>Competitive ranges (mid-50%) for students submitting ACT scores:
29-33

</p>

<p>It sounds like an English/Writing score is necessary. It also appears that they superscore the ACT? Any truth to this?</p>

<p>Yes, Tech does superscore the ACT. When I applied to the school, they combined my highest scores for a composite score of 31.</p>

<p>Oh wow, that’s pretty awesome. :)</p>

<p>they superscore ACTs and convert them to SATs. For example, my english score of 31 converted to a 700. My math score of 32 was a 720. So they try and make standardized tests less influential on your admission. Definitely take hard classes and make great grades in them…thats more important.</p>
