<p>will a low act score hurt one's chances for admission?</p>
<p>When I say low, I mean lower than a 26.</p>
<p>THANKS.</p>
<p>According to the Common Data Set (2009-2010) 67.4% of first-time, first-year students had an ACT score of 30-36, 31.2% of these students had a score between 24-29, and 1.4% had a score between 18-23. The Common Data set notes that standardized tests scores are “very important.” </p>
<p>Are you considering Mount Holyoke, Smith, and or Bryn Mawr? They are test optional. (And since they are fellow seven sisters schools, they are amazing).</p>
<p>Where can one find the Common Data Set information? </p>
<p>Yes, all seven sisters are wonderful.</p>
<p>I googled “Wellesley College” and “Common Data Set.” I am not sure if the common data set for Wellesley is accessible to those off campus/ not affiliated with Wellesley.</p>
<p>what about having a 4.0GPA, but a low act score? what are the chances of admission in this scenario?</p>
