Need to take w/ writing again?

<p>I took the ACT w/ writing in June and got a 29 composite without studying. My science score is what is dragging it down, so I wanna retake for a 31+ with prep. Most of the schools I'm applying to require the writing portion, but if I already took the ACT w/ writing once (and submitted the score) do I need to take it again?</p>

<p>Nope. If you’re happy with your writing score send it and save yourself the extra half hour for when you retake it. Good luck.</p>
