<p>Can I address why my ACT score is so BAD in the additional information of the common app? </p>
<p>I don’t want to come across as “I am trying to make excuses.”</p>
<p>I would simply take it again.</p>
<p>I’ve taken the ACT 3 times!!! The first time I got a 22, then a 23, and again I got another 23. I’m just bad at these standerdized tests. I know it’s easy to say “go study for it and take it again”, but I can’t. Becuase I have schoolwork, and after school I have to go to work. The job is not my option, I have to go to work to help support my family financially. So, I just don’t have time to study for the ACT. I know if I could study for it, then I could easily get into the score range of a 30 or higher.</p>
<p>I guess you can use the “additional” info box on the common app to describe your position</p>
