scores

<p>Hi,
I was wondering whether anybody could tell me the range of ACT scores that is optimal when applying to prestigious colleges (ivy league)??</p>

<p>Thx</p>

<p>Around 31 to 36.</p>

<p>Once you hit 34, you probably don’t need to consider retaking.</p>

<p>I think generally 33-34 is acceptable.</p>

<p>I think for an unhooked, white, non-legacy applicant a 33-34 would be considered acceptable (in terms of the score not hurting you.) However, it really does vary. I know someone who got in with a 30 and I was surprised (she didn’t have stellar EC’s, etc).</p>
