Pretty similar to what everyone else has to do to get into Harvard. (Remember that the average ACT and SAT scores of applicants, which are approximately 33-36, do include all the people for whom breaks for circumstances, athleticism, or race are given.) 27 is not even close to good enough. As you say, you’re retaking it, but your raw numbers aren’t competitive until you hit I think about a 32. (I’m used to SATs myself.) Then there’s the extracurricular dimension, which will also be a factor.
