One of mine scored a 27 on ACT with no prep and a 32 a few months later after spending about a week prepping on her own. She also took the PSAT and had a very mediocre score. She spent a week prepping on her own for the SAT (either right before or right after the week spent on ACT prep) and got a very high score, equivalent to a 34-35 ACT, so maybe don’t give up on the SAT yet?
Otherwise, if you’re targeting merit aid, higher is better, and if she has it in her to try one more time I guess I’d let her.
