I got a 35 composite, which I am very happy with. But I got an 8 out of 12 on the essay. I don’t want to retake the ACT with a 35, but is the 8 a crippling enough score that I should retake it? I am not sure if certain colleges really value the essay (Ivy’s, USC, etc…) but I want to know what my next step should be. I might rescore the essay, could anyone give some insight as to how this process works as well?
essay not considered much as long as you get ok score
