How Hurtful is a 31 ACT for an Ivy

Are you really good at basketball or football? Are you or your parents famous or rich? If the answer to these questions is no, then take the test again. Your application is not evaluated in a vacuum. You will be compared to all the other kids who are applying, most of whom will have a score higher than 31. Unless you have a strong hook that is going to make them overlook the relatively low score, they will most likely pick another candidate.
