A 31 is a very very good score in comparasin to every test-taker in the USA. That’s the 97% percentile. Another 99 kids taken at random and you can be assume yourself to have the 3rd highest ACT score in that bunch.

In terms of selective college admissions, it depends on where you want to go. Harvey Mudd or CalTech have very high average ACT scores - a 31 would be below average. But at URoch for example, a 31 is great. Look at 25%-75%iles ACT score for the unis you want to apply to.
