For the June test, I got a 33.25(34E/32M/36R/31S) and missed a 34 by 1 point. If I retake it, it would be my third time. I’m wondering if I should retake it because it seems like 34 is some kind of threshold for highly competitive colleges and I’d probably be relying more on test scores than grades when applying to those colleges. Should I take it again?
Hmmm that’s a tough decision. You’re almost at 75 Percentile (ACT score of 34 - 35) for most of the Ivy Leagues and it’s hard to say if that 0.75 would really make a difference. However, if the rest of your portfolio isn’t up to par then go for it and this time try to get to 35.
