April or September ACT (or both)

Hi guys,
I took the February ACT and got a 32 (30E, 30M (even though I usually get 35-36 on E and M), 36R (this never happens either), and 31S, and 9W). I want to take it again to raise my score, but I am not here for my preferred date (the June one). I am debating about whether or not to go for the April one (in addition to taking the September one) because I will have 4 APs to study for, and will have severely limited time to study. I don’t know how much insight you guys can offer me, but do you think that it would be a wise idea to go for the April test (I would still probably take September) with the minimal amount of prep time that I have, or do you think that I should just do the September one. I can make the case for both options, but can’t decide… Thanks!!

Btw I am extremely stressed out over this and am furious with my parents for having us go out of town for the June test :confused:

One more thing, I haven’t touched any ACT stuff since the February administration.

You have a great ACT score, now. I suggest focusing on the AP tests and really prepping for the September ACT.
Enjoy the trip with your parents in June. You will miss them one day!

I understand that. Thank you! I’m still debating

September

September without a doubt. Use summer, not procrastinating, but studying.

September. You already have a great score. Taking it in September will give you plenty of time to continuously prep and practice. You will see a bigger difference by taking it in September instead of April.

Well I ended signing up for the April one. I dont know if I made this clear before but I will probably take the September one too. I get stressed out easily, so I did not want to have the pressure of September being my only other opportunity to take it
