OFFICIAL ACT Scores Thread - April 2009

<p>going to bed waking up at 1… good luck</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Why yes, I do. I got a 9.</p>

<p>So is someone making a chatroom?</p>

<p>So, we’ll have the Multiple Choice part, but we won’t have the writing part yet? How much does the writing part factor into the overall ACT score?</p>

<p>The writing doesn’t affect your composite.</p>

<p>Okay, and most colleges don’t look at that anyways, correct? The writing part that is…</p>

<p>All the colleges I’m applying to (IU, UIUC, Ohio State) require the writing component, so I’m assuming they are looked at. IDK about the smaller LAC’s.</p>

<p>The writing score doesn’t affect your composite and only certain colleges put any weight into it as it is a relatively new test.</p>

<p>So if I were to magically do well on the test and horrible on writing, is there another test or something I can take to compensate for that?</p>

<p>unfortunately not, the writing test can only be administered along with the MC portion of the test, so depending on how bad it is you may just have to take a loss if your composite is really good.</p>

<p>People who got 8’s on the essay have gotten into HYP (obviously they had good composites), so as long as you don’t bomb it, you’re fine.</p>

<p>That’s true. I don’t want to have to take writing AGAIN in September, but i’m stuck. Even if I do totally screw it up, I aced college composition. Wheeee.</p>

<p>this is stupid.
I wish they just released scores as they entered them in our accounts.</p>

<p>They like watching us squirm.</p>

<p>I bet they’re cracking up as they read these message boards…</p>

<p>Wow… my high school just received my February scores.</p>

<p>haha they seem to be on top of things</p>

<p>These next 24 hours could be unimaginable bliss or sheer hell. Anyone else leaving for NSPA in Phoenix tomorrow? Represent.</p>

<p>Phewwww I hope I did ok! Anything over a 27 for composite would be nice!</p>

<p>wow, i was so not even expecting this so soon. i think i subconsciously blocked it out because i know i bombed science :(</p>
