<p>Your ACT score is fine for Barnard. Barnard probably is a “reach” for everyone-- in part because they are looking at a whole lot of factors beyond test scores – but the middle-score range for Barnard is 28-32. If Barnard is your top choice, there are a lot of better things you could be doing with your time than studying to retake the ACT when your score is solidly within their expectations. </p>
