High test scores, low grades?

<p>I got a 34 on my ACT first try, have three SAT IIs between 750-800, and got 5s on APUSH and AP bio last year. However, I missed over 40 days of school both sophomore and junior year due to health issues. I tried very hard to keep up, but my GPA is currently a 3.5 weighted 3.3 UW. What are some schools that place a high emphasis on test scores?</p>

<p>There is a search link near the top of the page that works: [College</a> Confidential Site Search Results - College Confidential](<a href=“http://www.collegeconfidential.com/search_results.htm?q=emphasize+test+scores&sa=Google+Search&userInput=&sitesearch=collegeconfidential.com&cx=013579521852154800353%3Avvp1k6kluvq&cof=FORID%3A9#938]College”>http://www.collegeconfidential.com/search_results.htm?q=emphasize+test+scores&sa=Google+Search&userInput=&sitesearch=collegeconfidential.com&cx=013579521852154800353%3Avvp1k6kluvq&cof=FORID%3A9#938)</p>

<p>I’m not sure about schools that are bigger on test scores, sorry, but I feel like if you explain your situation in the additional information section, most schools will definitely take that into account. Hopefully your test scores will show that you’re really smart but were just held back by health issues. Good luck! :)</p>
