How Important is the Composite Score???

Let’s say you have a composite of a 28, but have two different situations. Which is better?

Situation # 1: You have two good scores (28 and 34) but two not-so-good scores (24, 25).

Situation # 2: All your scores are around 28 (27, 27, 29, 29).

Situation # 1 is where I find myself currently. A composite of 28 should be good enough for the colleges I want, but I’m concerned because of the 24 and 25 I got. But I also got a 28 and 34, which I’m happy about.

Do colleges just care about the composite, or will my two lower scores hurt me even though my composite is just above average for the college?
