<p>I took the act in september of my junior year and got 32. But I didn't take the writing section of it and recently I found out that a lot of college require the writing section if you submit the act. So I have to retake it. My problem is that the first test date offered in my state is october 25th and I can't take it then because I have the regional championships for cross country on that day. Is there any way to take it the day after or before? And if it isnt possible could I take it in a neighboring state even though I'm not a resident?</p>
<p>You can take it in any state. Residency is not a requirement to take the test.</p>
<p>There have been people that had contests and things on the test date, so they just took the test at the state that they happened to be in.</p>
<p>Look for schools offering Sunday test dates - I noticed there were several in our area when I signed D up for her September test. If I remember correctly, they didn't show up until we were logged in to register/choose test site.</p>
