Hi Everyone,
I would never ask this on another website, but I just received my ACT scores and was wondering if it was worth my time retaking them. This was my first time ever taking the ACT without doing any prep work. Is there a significant edge to getting a 36 in the admissions process? Thanks!
Composite: 34
English: 35
Reading: 35
Math: 36
Science: 30
If you had taken the ACT after countless hours of taking practice tests and preparation, I would have advised you to keep the score. But since you say that this was your first time taking the test, there is definitely a lot of potential for you to raise that score to a 35 or even a 36!
I don’t think any college will really care that much about the difference between a 34 and 35/36.
