ACT Superscoring
Answered

The first time I took the ACT I got a 34: 35 English, 31 Math, 36 Reading, and 35 Science

The second time I took the ACT I did worse with a 33: 34 English, 33 Math, 32 Reading, and 34 Science.

My superscore would be a 35, but I'm afraid that if I superscore it, it'll give a bad impression to the college because they will see that I did worse the second time around.

Will it have a negative impression? Should I superscore?

I would say definitely super score as colleges don't look that deeply at your individual score. If you did around the same, which you did, you'd be fine. At the end of the day it also up to you and your goals for college.
