should i retake?

<p>Hey guys, I got a 31 on my ACT..
I'm applying to Kenyon, Bates, Vassar, and Oberlin and others in the same vein
Will this score hinder my chances of getting into these schools??
I suppose I could take it again in December but I'm not sure if it would be submitted to the schools in time for Reg. decision
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!</p>

<p>of course a 31 won't hinder your chances at any of those schools</p>

<p>thanks... a few people told me my scores were kind of low, so I wasn't sure</p>

<p>Check the middle 50% range of accepted students for those schools...that will give you the best guess</p>

<p>personally, i would retake. Why? Theres no penalty. However, i would study very minimal for it because 31 is pretty good.</p>

<p>Don't retake; you're fine. Take the time to strengthen your application in other ways. You should get into 3/4.</p>

<p>Naah, you're fine for those places. Spend your time tailor-making quirky applications instead.</p>

<p>31 will probably be fine</p>
