[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For some reason, folks think the colleges are more impressed by one sitting of a decent score then a million scores that are superscored since maybe it means you focused on one section at a time instead of being able to do a good job in one sitting? My pre-covid DS took the ACT like 6 times(his choice, not mine). He could have gotten a superscore of 35 if he submitted like 5 tests to do it. Instead he submitted a 34 one sitting. He got into all of his targets and 2 reaches, but not the other reaches. Not sure if it was the right strategy but it was the one he wanted and believed would work.[/quote] DD took the ACT 2 times. Second test she scored a 34 in one sitting, but her superscore (also a 34) has a higher English (36 vs. 35). Is there any evidence that colleges ARE more impressed with one sitting of a decent score? DD still deciding about taking it again but is leaning towards not taking it.[/quote]
