<p>I have taken the ACT 3 times- once with writing, one without, and one that was state-required. For the state-required one, I made a 31, which I was satisfied with (I made a perfect score on one of the sections). But, I just got my results from the June test, with writing, and only got a 29 (very disappointing). So, my question is, does my 31 even matter? All the schools I think I’m gonna apply to require the ACT plus writing. (I’m a rising senior, btw). Should I study like crazy and re-take it in the fall?
Thanks :)</p>

<p>Well, if I understand it correctly, it depends on whether or not the state required ACT included writing. If not, retake it, as most of the upper tier colleges require the ACT plus writing in a single setting.</p>
