Pretty good essay
ACT: 22 Super Scored :/ (I know this is going to ruin my chance, taking it again)
I'm going to have an excellent teacher recommendation</p>
<p>UMiami: Reach (but at least you might have a chance)
UF: Reach
UCF: High match
NYU: Reach</p>
<p>Try to take the SAT as well… and a safety should preferably be test-optional.</p>
<p>You’re going to have to retake the ACT/SAT if you really are serious about going to these schools. Also UF and UCF(and if your in florida and also applying to FSU) don’t look at recommendations.</p>
<p>Somewhere on cc,
there is a list of test optional schools</p>
<p>so UM is easier to get into than UF? and I’m retaking the ACT in 2 weeks… I want to increase my scores by at least 5 points. I have a prep book, I just don’t do what to do with it</p>
<p>If you don’t get your score up at least 4 points, you have little chance at any of those schools. You should add applications to UNF and FGCU. They are more likely to admit you and are worth looking at.</p>
<p>yeah, I already got accepted to FIU, FAU and NSU so at least I got into my safeties. Do you think i have a chance of getting it up 4 points by the test date in 2 weeks?</p>
<p>Well without those ACTs, I consider you a pretty good applicant. If you just bump up to at 26 or so, your schools would be all high matches/reaches- but maybe the ACT just isn’t your thing. Have you thought about taking the SAT instead?</p>
<p>I did, and I actually did worse on the SAT. It’s really frustrating because I tried my best on both test. How would you suggest I prepare for the next ACT in 2 weeks? Pretty sure this is my last chance</p>
<p>[SAT/ACT</a> Optional 4-Year Universities | FairTest](<a href=“http://www.fairtest.org/university/optional]SAT/ACT”>ACT/SAT Optional List - Fairtest) <–Schools not requiring SAT/ACT if you wanna find one that doesn’t need your score.</p>
<p>But I actually want to go to schools who require scores, I just need to make sure if i got it up to a 26 I would have a chance…</p>
