When applying for college, you’re probably aware of the importance of achieving a good GPA score, as well as penning a standout personal statement. But did you know that your ACT (American College Testing) exam score can also make or break your application?
What defines a good ACT score varies depending on what college you are applying to. To make things more confusing, the ACT exam is split into four parts. Plus, there is an additional writing section marked entirely differently from the rest of the examination.
