A 35 is a great score. She does not need to take the SAT unless she did great on the PSAT. Does she need to take any SAT subject tests?

Don't retake the ACT.

It will not make a difference at this point even if upon retaking it, the score is marginally higher.

If the stereotypes are working against you, you don't want to feed them.

Even with only two exams?

Why not with only two exams?

A 35 is more than good enough for any school in the country. The scores are standardized so percentile wise there's barely a difference between 35 and 36. Frankly, the admissions officers don't care about the difference. If it seems like you care, it might send the wrong impression.

Gaming, gaming, gaming.....just have her take the tests she needs for admission and stop worrying that she's a one hit wonder. She sounds smart, let her be.
