Should I apply test optional?/How much would I be able to improve my score?
Okay, so we just got our ACT scores back, and mine was a LOT worse than I expected. These are my stats,
AP Tests:
AP Precalc: 4
APUSH: 4
APHUG: 5
(Taking AP Calc AB, AP Physics 1, AP U.S Gov, and a CCP this year)
GPA UW: 3.88
ECs: Varsity athlete, leadership positions in 2 clubs, service hours, etc.
ACT Score (beginning of junior year): 27 (30 math, 25 English, 26 reading, 28 science)
Should I apply to my reach schools without my ACT score, or would it be possible to improve it by 3+ points by senior year? Or would getting prep classes really help that much?
Definitely submit those AP scores, those are amazing. If the ACT doesn't help with your grade than you can either retake it or you could just go test optional. If you are applying for an IVY league though I would recommend retaking due to how competitive it is. Great job, keep up the great work, have a great day, and I hope this helps! :D
I don't know what a AP CCP is.. and if you're applying for UW, you already done enough.
