[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As others have said, it depends on the school. Not much merit $$ for a 31. More importantly, did your child prep for this test? If not, lots of prep and practice definitely can increase scores.[/quote]

This is absolute bull. My child, with a 29, got merit at every single private school she applied to and one of the publics- Marquette, AU, Drexel, Loyola in Chicago, Belmont, and Miami of Ohio.

If you are fixated on the top 50 schools or whatever there's not much merit, but it is so so so so false that there is not much merit for a 31 on the ACT. [/quote]

Wow.. Real top tier schools.  :roll:  Let me guess, merit aid from the privates were like 10-15k? [/quote]

Well, if you are the kind of person who thinks only Ivy League schools are worthy, then these schools wouldn't measure up. But I've never had that attitude because frankly, I think it does kids a great disservice. And the merit awards ranged from 12K-25K.[/quote]
