iLikeFood, both of my younger kids had your problem. (34 ACT + 3.8 GPA most recently) The answer, unfortunately, is that high test scores actually probably won’t help much. I think they both ended up being accepted and rejected at the UC campuses that they would have gotten those responses from if their test scores were more in line with their GPAs.
