<p>Hi, I am from the East Coast and I prefer the ACT to the SAT. As a student applying to the college of Natural Sciences and Mathematics as a computer science major, should I take the optional ACT writing test? If I do not, would this reflect badly on my application? I currently have a 27 on the ACT and a 4.38 W (3.86 UW) GPA.</p>
<p>They don’t look at SAT writing so I don’t see why they would look at ACT writing. </p>
Most high schools now recommend taking the ACT/SAT with writing.
