I got into the class of 2010 with an ACT score of 31. My SAT may have been “considered” better at a 1440 (2200)…but not by that much. I think my essay was excellent, I was coming from one of ND’s top “feeders” if there is such a thing…and I had good leadership positions. Needless to say, my ACT / SAT scores were my biggest worry. And then once I got in…I wondered if I was smart enough to succeed.

But whatI have found is that once you get here…everyone has different talents and strengths and usually with some hard work it won’t matter what you got on the ACT or SAT.
