<p>I am going into my senior year of High School and my parents are really concerned for my ACT grade. I currently have a 19 but plan on taking it again in September and october. My GPA is around 3.2 (my school doesn't calculate it so that is my findings). I do alot of out of school activities. I'm looking at some state schools, art schools and liberal art schools. I just want to know if it's possible for me to get into a school i want with the ACT grade i have... and how to convince my parents of it. I would like to raise my ACT score to a 24, but I'm not to sure that is possible (I'm a HORRID test taker).
Feedback would be amazing! THanks!</p>
<p>It would be helpful to know what schools you are interested in. You could probably look at their common data sets to see if getting in with a 19 ACT is possible. (just google the name of the school and common data set - easy to find).</p>
<p>Do the art schools all require ACT scores? (not my area). Also, there are test-optional schools to consider.</p>
<p>Thanks for the help!
If it helps anymore these are the list of schools I’m looking at.
-Hunter
-School of the Museum of Fine Arts
-SVA
-Pitzer
-FIT
-Oberlin (i know this one is most likely a reach school)</p>
<p>I’m not an expert, but have you considered the SAT? (do the schools on your list accept it?)</p>
