[quote=Anonymous]It's a wonderful score overall, one I would love for my son to receive, but I agree that for engineering, a 33 in math might raise eyebrows. It's not that she needs to increase her total score, it's that her math scores should be at least a 34. There was a thread weeks ago about how selective colleges appear to have a tacit cut-off at 34. There's no way to know if it's true, but... why not try? My son, who consistently scores 35-36 in Reading and English sections, and is applying for a major in the Humanities, retook his ACT because his Math and Science were 30s, and for a selective college, he felt it dragged down his score too much. We don't have the results yet, I hope he improved! [/quote]
