anyone ever send out a bad score report to colleges?

<p>I took the ACT back in June and had my scores sent to about 3 or 4 colleges that I was interested in. I didn't score nearly as well as I expected and it was definitely a score I didn't want those colleges to see. I plan on retaking it for sure maybe 2 more times, but I was wondering if my bad would report hurt my chances in any way? Has anyone else been through this? I'm not extremely worried, but I was just curious.</p>

<p>I wouldn’t be worried. If you send a college 2 scores, they’ll (in almost every case) only look at your highest. Now if you took the ACT six times or something, they might factor that in when reviewing your app. But taking it twice, especially if your score improves, will not affect you.</p>
