Why not try and take the ACT? Our dau, (4 year AROTC winner, 2016) did unbelievably better on the ACT! Good luck!!

Took the ACT once and made the same as the SAT if you compare the scores. I will be re-taking the ACT later in the summer. I thought the ACT was easier but ran out of time. I do believe I can score higher on that.

That's just not going to happen, 1100-1200 is what I will end up with on the test.

ROO meeting with my daughter senior year on a visit to UNR, "improve you ACT, period." She freaked out, she had taken it three times and done to different prep classes. She did a little research and picked this program. Her highest score had been a 22, her target was a 25, it seemed impossible and the test was five week she away. She did this program for five weeks, (only completed about 70 percent of the program), raised her score from 22 to 25 and got a super score of 26. She received a 3 year on the third board. This program guarantees a two hundred point improvement on the SAT if you do the whole program, or your money back. It is personalized and my daughter did two practice tests and about twenty hours of study which broke down to thirty minutes a day most days and she got such great results. I will never regret spending the Four hundred dollars on it! Up to you if you think you would actually dedicate yourself to it, but a Greta program. Two of my younger daughter friends did the SAT version and booth raised their scores over the guarantee. If you have questions PM me, dont say it isn't gonna happen, if you want a higher score, make it happen!

ACT is designed to be a time crunch. You might want to just focus on that. My previous post about my daughter doing the prep scholar course for ACT was simply it made her really confident and effocient in taking the test. Worth he other two prep programs she never finished the ACT when she took it, but after the course she finished all of it increasing her score 3 points. Good luck. And remember there is the superscoring which is how she had a 26 for the scholarship app.

exactly.
In my sons case on his 2nd SAT he spent all his time on verbal section. He scored lower on the math section than the 1st time but he was not concentrating on that as he already had a decent score on that section.
The next time he concentrated on the math and improved that score.
Before each exam he took several practice tests.
His prep tutor was able to explain how the test would be constructed. he would show him sample questions and tell him; there will be two of these, three of those, etc.
Really took the mystery out of it.
It not only helped his ROTC application (I think) , as he got a 3yr AD, it helped get him a very sizable merit scholarship to use his freshman year.

This is similar to my daughter who on the ACT scored high on the math the first three times it was the sections that required reading that she was slower and couldn't finish the sections as she always wanted to re read them several times. So for her final test she focused on the sections other than math knowing she had a good math score already. She did slightly lower on math that last test so having the superscore helped a lot. Strategy is a big part of this.
