Variability of ACT scores

For those of you who’ve taken the ACT multiple times in a fairly short period, have you ever noticed a score decline? Or have your scores either remained consistent/improved?

I ask because I took the ACT as part of state testing in Colorado and got a 34, but no writing section was offered. Therefore, I have to take the whole darn thing over again for college applications. I’m planning to apply early to a school, so I really only have one shot (the october test) at getting a good score. I don’t expect to best my current score, but should I worry about it going down much?
