Physics: My situation

<p>I really want to attend Purdue University and major in Physics; however, I got a horrendous ACT math score (22) compared to the rest of my scores which were great (33 English, 33 reading, 28 science), making a 29 composite. </p>

<p>I'm retaking the ACT on December 14, but Purdue's deadline to list your major on your application is November 8, or else you won't be considered for scholarships. I know that although I have a good GPA (3.83), with that math score I won't even be considered for Purdue's physics program. Should I list it as my major still and hope that they reconsider after they see my second test, or apply as another major I will get in for sure, then try to change it later? </p>

<p>Purdue is kind of odd because you're accepted directly into the program you want, and it can be hard to change programs.</p>

<p>Apply as undecided or something stupid like that and switch into physics as soon as you get in.</p>
