<p>I got a 27 on my December ACT and a lower score on the October ACT. Should I send both for colleges to see my improvement? Or should I just not bother?</p>
<p>I don’t know if this matters but one of my four scores was 1 point higher in my October ACT. I don’t think it makes a difference, though.</p>
<p>It really depends on college:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Some require you to send all scores; majority let you choose</p></li>
<li><p>Majority use that ACT score with highest composite but some superscore by taking highest section scores from multiple tests to determine admission.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Doesn’t the score choice thing only apply for SAT’s?</p>
<p>You can actually completely DELETE an ACT score so it looks as though you never took the test in the first place (that is, unless you’ve already notified the colleges that you’ve taken the test): [ACT</a> FAQ : How do I delete a test date record?](<a href=“http://www.actstudent.org/faq/answers/delete.html]ACT”>http://www.actstudent.org/faq/answers/delete.html)</p>
<p>As with my other responses, whether it applies to ACT and not just SAT depends on college. Some all scores colleges apply their all scores rule only to SAT, while others also apply the rule to ACT.</p>
<p>and yes, ACT lets you choose whether to send your scores. However, they only let you select by date. If, for example, you get a great ACT score, but a mediocre essay score, you can’t split those scores up. (I got a 33 composite and an 8 on the essay, which is why I’m probably going to retake it)</p>
