i got my candidate number with only a 24 on the ACT. my scores aren’t that great either.

first time:
verbal - 26, math - 24, reading - 21, science - 23, composite - 24
second time:
verbal - 25, math - 26, reading - 24, science - 23, composite - 25
third time:
verbal - 26, math - 31, reading - 24, science - 27, composite - 27

i took the sat only one time, pretty crappy.
verbal - 540, math - 590, writing - 510 (but i got a 9 on my essay)

i don’t think i’m ever going to take the SAT again. i’m thinking of taking ACT again though, since my highest right now would be a math of 31 and a verbal of 26. anybody know how i stack up with others? i looked at the pdf file of last year’s profile. but i’m sure those with low test scores have really great e.c’s or something. i know test scores are important, but i’m worrying that my scores are also a little low and not that competative.
