<p>Which one looks better? I currently have a 770/630 but ive heard a 630 in reading will really hurt me. Should I take the act and try to get a 32 on it?(last time i took it I got a 29) or will a 32 and 1400 look the same in the eyes of the admissions officers even though the sores are lopsided.</p>
<p>Post all stats on the ACT (W, CR, M, S) then we can see.</p>
<p>I got 620R/800M/710W and I got in. I also never took the ACT</p>
<p>Anytime an individual section score on the SAT is below the target range, taking the ACT will be benificial since the college only has to report the total ACT Composite score on their common data set</p>
<p>Waiting NEMOHOES.</p>
<p>Apologies for the delay.
My current ACT score is a 29
28 English, 33 Math, 30 Reading, 24 Science.
I am planning to apply early decesion; therefore, my last date to submit standardized tests is in September for the ACT and October for the SAT (I can’t take the SAT1 during october though since I must take my subject tests).</p>
<p>Well, not exactly an ACT expert, but I know some tricks.
English - if you can read quickly, then read the passage while correcting the sentences.
Math - you’re just going to have to work fast… what level of math are you on right now?
Reading - kinda’ like the SAT where one paragraph has the answers to the first two questions, the next paragraph the next two, etc. Break up your reading like that if you need to
Science - do not read the passage at the beginning of each experiment as it takes too much time. The graphs and tables are usually enough for you to understand the experiment and the questions are something like, “According to Table 1, which ___ increased at the highest rate”.</p>
