Will high English and reading scores offset low math and science?

Test Preparation
1

<p>I'm applying to schools of art/liberal arts to study art history next fall, and I'm wondering how much admissions will rely on the math and science portions of my ACT score.</p>

<p>I took the ACT in June with no prep, and got good scores in English/reading sections, but math and science were pretty low:</p>

<p>Composite: 30
Reading: 34
English: 35
Math: 27
Science: 27
Writing: 10</p>

<p>Here are the schools I'm applying to:</p>

<p>NYU
University of Rochester
Pratt Institute
Kenyon College
University of Texas at Austin
University of Houston
Rice University</p>

<p>Will my high subscores make up for the low ones because I'm applying to art history programs? </p>

<p>Probably, but none of us will be in the room when the applications are discussed. Maybe you should prep for another try?</p>
