<p>if i take the act in october, can i still do ed to a school since most of them have deadlines early november?</p>
<p>yeah, as long as you get your score before the ed deadline</p>
<p>Even if the score does not arrive strictly before the ED deadline, it will be fine.
Most schools are fairly generous regarding the submission times of the standardized test scores, because they know the whole submitting-score-process is kinda out of the student's control like the Teacher Recs.</p>
<p>you might be able to take the ACT in september depending on your state.</p>
<p>^ yeah definitely try that. Your Oct scores should be in with plenty of time before Nov ED.</p>
<p>and if your september ACT isn't offered in your state.. just go to the nearest state that does administer the test (if it's not too far away) and take it there</p>
