Need Help Please

1. On my April ACT I got a composite of 25. On my June ACT I got a composite of 27. After adding the highest section scores from both tests, the composite was a 28. Will the colleges look at the 28 if I send them both scores. For example, I am interested in Ohio State University, will they look at my 28 if i send both or should i just send the 27.

i'm not quite sure, but i believe colleges just take the highest composite score. that is i don't think you can mix and match like the sat. hope this helps, however, like i said before i'm not certain.

You'll have to check with your specific college, but I believe they take the highest overall score. I.E. if you took the ACT three times, and received a 25, 26, and 27, they will take the 27.

I just looked this up for conformation on the OSU Website.
Quote:Using multiple ACT/SAT test scores
Ohio State does not combine or average ACT or combined SAT Critical Reading and Math scores from multiple test dates. We will always consider the highest composite or combined score from a single test date.
