ACT or SAT Question

I got a 1470/2230 on the SATs:

Math: 800
Critical Reading: 670
Writing: 760

and a 32 on the ACT:

Math: 34
English: 34
Reading: 31
Science: 27

Should I retake the ACT in order to make the score a little more comparable to my SAT score?

Did you run out of time on the science part of the ACT or is science just not your thing? My cousin went from a 29 composite to a 35 w/o prep, just adjusting her timing.

yeah, your science score is the one bringing your composite score down.

any suggestions on how to get the science score up, besides just practicing?
