<p>I just checked my score report and I'm not entirely happy with it. I want to apply ED though, so should I go to another state and take the test there or should I wait until October? Would it hurt me if I waited until October?</p>
<p>Why would you go out of state? I am confused.</p>
<p>Because it isn't offered in his state until October...</p>
<p>Anyways - I took it in October and I was fine. Unless you are applying to some honors program or something that requires a very early application (before November), I would just take the October test.</p>
<p>Ah, I understand. I'd take the October test unless you are applying early somewhere.</p>
<p>Yeah, I'd really like to apply ED (deadline: Nov 1) because the acceptance rates for ED is ridiculously higher than Regular Decision for the top school of my choice.</p>
<p>And hey, there's a school in California I'd like to visit anyway...</p>
<p>If you can prepare and are ready to take it earlier and don't mind traveling, why not take it early?</p>
<p>Otherwise, even if you take it in October, the scores will reach your ED school in time, so don't worry about it either way, it's your choice.</p>
<p>I advise taking the ACT in September and in October if you will be doing an ED or EA or rolling application</p>
