Also, my ACT essay was rather low. However my SAT essay was relatively high. Will colleges acknowledge that I am still a strong writer. The ACT prompt was about using GPS tracking on children. It was not very "writer-friendly" in my perspective. Do colleges focus heavily upon the ACT essay score?</p>

<p>I don’t think the adcoms really look in to the essay subscore, but rather the scores of each subject & the holistic test. You should def try the subject tests, if you want to. Take the ACT and/or SAT again, and send in the better score. If you choose not to, I’d def send the ACT score. Btw, amazing GPA, and very solid EC’s.</p>

<p>Please chance back!
