<p>FML...I went from a 30 C in April to 26 C in June..***!?!? </p>
<p>I didn't finish any of the sections this time. What should I do? Retake in September or assume that the 30 C will be enough to get into UF?</p>
<p>A 30 would probably be enough to get into UF. I don’t know about ACT scores, but I know some people with looooow SAT scores that got in there this year (1000+).</p>
<p>BTW, a 30 and a 1890 SAT is what I have, UF is my safety school</p>
<p>Yeah UF should not be your safety school with those test scores, especially after a year with a 33% admittance rate.</p>
<p>A 30 composite is about average for UF, right at the 50th percentile.</p>

<p>However, if you have a low UF GPA then you will be in trouble. I would only retake if you think you can do better or you have less than a 4.0 UF GPA.</p>
<p>ACT has score choice so there really is no downside.</p>
<p>I’m applying mixed race as well…and I have 30 C and 1860 SAT…I know someone that applied mixed race got in with a 28…im still worried though.</p>
<p>Got a parent that’s an alumnae? They love that, you can get in with like a 4 if one of your parents went there</p>
<p>If you are hispanic UF will not care at all. </p>
<p>Coming from someone who lives in Florida, hispanics are hardly minorities in many parts of Florida.</p>
<p>UF also cares little about alumni considering pretty much everybody has some alumni relation.</p>
<p>I also can never finish the sections. Retaking it in September sounds great to me also, though taking the SAT sounds better. I think your first score 30 is great.</p>
<p>What ACT score do I need to get into UC Irvine>??</p>
<p>Gator, isn’t mixed race different from hispanic?</p>
<p>My story. </p>
<p>Going to be a senior. Here are my scores:</p>
<p>Sept 08 : 24
Feb 09 : 26
April 09 : 27
Jun 09 :24</p>
<p>Ugh, I dropped 3 points. If I actually study for 2 months, you think I’ll be able to reach 29, perhaps 30? Honestly, all the practice I’ve done for each test might have been like 1 practice test the day before and that’s it. Give me hope.</p>

<p>It depends what “mixed race” means.</p>
<p>If you are partly african american you would be considered an URM, and it would help alot. </p>
<p>Half white and half hispanic won’t be that rare in florida though.</p>
<p>oops,meant for a new thread,sorry.</p>
<p>To post 10…</p>
<p>Does studying actually help? I never though it would on an ACT so never tried.</p>
<p>You can say they don’t care about alumni, but everybody I know that’s applied and had a parent that went there has gotten in. Which is a lot considering I live just South of gville.</p>
<p>Haha, I like the comment that hispanics are minorities in Florida. I’ve never thought of it that way but it’s pretty true</p>
<p>It is “considered” but it is hardly important.</p>
<p>UF is not UVA</p>
