My ACT Scores Are Ridiculous

Test Preparation
1

<p>Okay so I'm retaking the ACT tomorrow, the LAST one I can before I apply for schools in January. I took several practice tests this past week and have been consistently getting this:</p>

<p>English: 32-34
Reading: 33-35
Math: 24-26
Science: 25-26</p>

<p>Seriously, ***. I hate that I'm good at english and reading and suck at math and science, I just can't do well on those two sections. </p>

<p>Will colleges overlook my bad math and science scores for my good english and reading scores?</p>

<p>The scores for reading and English are excellent. I’ll give you some generic advice for science: do the data representation questions first and the fighting scientists questions last.</p>

<p>You may be better suited to take the SAT because the test is mostly comprised of reading/english (66%) while the ACT is half and half. A lot of colleges that I know of simply look at your ACT composite instead of individual subjects, so the math and science will definitely hurt you in that regard.</p>
