Pretty good. Wrote about my internship at a Fortune 500 company and all that I learned.
One last thing. I’m pretty happy with my SAT (already submitted) but I’m retaking my ACT in October. Should I submit my first ACT and my new one too? (My practice ACT’s have been ranging from 34-35, leaning towards 35)
Thanks for reading, Hook 'em!
