Lopsided ACT results

<p>Hello to all you ACT/SAT experts out there...I'm a HS junior and I need your help and your insight.</p>

<p>I took the ACT twice and here were my results:</p>

<p>Dec 11 ACT
34 Eng
31 Math
25 Reading
26 Science
COMPOSITE: 29</p>

<p>Feb 12 ACT
30 Eng
29 Math
32 Reading
29 Science
COMPOSITE: 30
Writing subscore: N/A</p>

<p>Talk about lopsidedness...</p>

<p>As you can tell, I practiced the reading section a lot after the December test and kind of left English and Math on the backburner... Anyways, I don't really know what I should do. Has this happened to anyone else? Will adcoms see this as some fluke?</p>

<p>It isn't a fluke...because your composition scores are roughly the same. I don't think it is so much that you left English and Math on the backburner, but more that you focused on Reading more, but also because you might have been lucky on all of the test questions, some which might have been easier for you, others not (careless mistakes, etc). I woudn't take it again...you're getting the same type of scores. I think you should be proud of yourself!</p>

<p>In my opinion, you should take it again. TAke it at least once more your senior year. Since you have improved drastically your reading and to some degree your science, you should have no problem next year. Study over the summer and you should be fine. (However, I think the scores are already good for the colleges you are considering.)</p>
