Ughh...bad writing score

Yeah I don’t understand the writing section either. I have a 33 ACT and both times I’ve taken it I got a 7 on the writing portion… I’ve tried writing my own essays and using stock essays (like the organization that PR recommends).

I get mostly 7s, 8s, and 9s on my AP Lang essays, which gives you a gauge of my writing skills as well; I’m a pretty good writer (although there is much room for improvement).

So yeah, my point is, the writing section of the ACT is really strange and kind of hard to understand. I’m pretty sure I remember reading somewhere that colleges don’t take it into consideration unless it is either really low or really high.
