ACT writing....

I got a 35 composite score on my ACT, but my writing was a 12. Unfortunately I actually think I deserved the 12 because I’m 100% it was the worst thing I’ve written in my life (relative to age of course). Do I need to take the ACT again to get a better writing score. I got a 4 on AP english and comp and have 95+ in all my english classes and my essays are good

The act writing scoring has been off, to the point they had to revert to their old scale. Colleges don’t pay attention to it anyway. Don’t retake. Focus on other parts of your application.
