Have to take Writing portion every ACT?

Test Preparation ACT Preparation

<p>Hey guys, I got my scores for the June ACT today, went from 29 in October with a 20 in math to a 33 this June with a 32 in math.</p>

<p>I took the October ACT and got 29 Composite with an 11 in writing, and this time around I didn't take the writing test but got 33 composite.</p>

<p>I guess my question is, will colleges see that I got an 11 in writing on an old ACT and then combine that with the composite score from my better ACT score? It's going to suck if I have to retake it in September with the writing test and hope I can get 33 with an 11.</p>

<p>Well, it depends. If the colleges you're applying to superscore, then you don't have to. Otherwise, you do if you still want to improve your score.</p>

<p>There are a fair amount of top schools that require the writing portion on any ACT for them to consider it, so you might have to. :( Congrats on the 33 though!</p>
