<p>Well, i was not really sure where to post this, so i guess I'll ask here.</p>
<p>Do schools like Harvard and Yale, when looking at an ACt score, take just the english / math for the composite and then look at the other categories as subject tests? I ask because I was wondering if my score would average out to a 34 or 33...</p>
<p>english: 35
reading: 36
Math: 33
science: 29 (ouch)
essay: 9</p>
<p>They use the composite score.</p>
<p>so do the math and english sections not factor into like a general category? I was a bit confused because alot of sites say that an act average is like 3x for math / english. I was wondering why it did not just say act composite.</p>
<p>Are the sites individual college websites, or admission advice sites? From everything I’ve read, generally the composite is used (also in the conversion to SAT tables.)</p>
<p>I rang up the office and they said composite.</p>
