That is a FANTASTIC score. Why take it again?
Just took the ACT last Saturday. If I don't beat a 32, I may have to jump off a small cliff... that's what I got freshman year. >.<

Just make sure it's a *small* cliff. Gotta watch out for those medium-sized ones.

Well, it never hurt. I know I can do better, especially on english, so I might as well try.

Im planning to take the ACT this spring as a sophomore, i usually get a 35 or 36 on the practice tests (the reading is what screws me over) and i'm hoping i just get the 36 so i don't have to take it ever again...except for junior year state requirement but boy would that be so stress relieving for junior year.

I guess. I'm going to retake it if I get below a 34, I think - but we shall see. *crosses fingers*

I get 34-ish on practice tests. My best is science (of course) at 35. Even though science is just basically reading charts, which is easy. What really brings me down is math!! ArGGh! I'll die if I don't get math to at least 31!!!

It's kind of sad when you think about it that we're lamenting having over our scores, which are somewhere around the 98% percentile. :lol: LOL. Overachievers :D
