A couple of questions regarding ACT and OSU.

I am a senior looking to go to Ohio State University next year. I've taken the ACT three times scoring a 25, 27, and the third coming on the 24th.

Will It look bad if I take the ACT a fourth time? I know ACT lets us delete scores but I've had my scores sent to OSU through ACT every time.

Also, will it be considered late If I wait for the Oct 27 scores to come back before I apply? I know the deadline is February 1st but most people apply much earlier.

Is there a realistic chance for me getting into OSU? I've got about a 3.5 weighted GPA (2.8 Freshman year, 4.0 Junior year) and I expect to get ~29 on the ACT. Im a minority (brownguy) and am active in service club at school, I even volunteer at a community clinic that is partially funded by OSU.

I would really appreciate it if I got some feedback, especially because the OCT 27 deadline is in 2 hours.
