ACT writing question

Test Preparation
1

Hi

My dd took the ACT in Dec and got a 34 composite with M - 33 and a writing score of 11. She wants to retake it to improve her Math score. She does not want to take the writing again preferably. How do the colleges look at scores? Do they take the highest score with writing or can she have the writing from the 1st score and the rest from the second?

Thanks

Depending on the school, they’ll look at just the highest from each section. An 11 is great! So she should just take the ACT without writing and send in both test dates to colleges.
