SAT/ACT Scores

Hey,

I'm applying ED to Wharton and just received my scores today from my ACT:
Composite - 33
English - 32
Reading - 33
Math - 36
Science - 31

Should I take the ACT again?
Do they look more favorably upon the SAT?
Am I competitive for ED?
Will they be able to view the specific subscores, and, if so, will that help or hurt my chances?

Thanks a lot -- I know I posted quite a few questions.

Good Luck to all

If you think you can bring that Science score up, then go for it. I know Science is my worst section too I talked to an admissions officer and he specifically stated that Penn does *not* have a preference between the SAT and ACT. All they want to see is a good score. I think you're competitive for ED, but a higher score can only help you, right? They can see your specific subscores, and my understanding is that they superscore your subscores but I am not positive on that. Good luck!

Chance a junior for Top 20 (will chance back)
