ACT improvements

[gwilliams15]

I have already submitted my NROTC application along with my test scores. The best ACT I took I had a 30 composite. The breakdown for that test was English- 31, Math-32, Reading-32, and Science-24(I don't know what happened there). But recently I took the ACT again and had very different results, my composite was a 29. However my breakdown was English-34, Math-27, Reading-27, and Science-28. As you can see my English and Science improved dramatically but Math and Reading decreased. I am wondering if I should try to update my application or if the lowered math and reading scores would reflect badly. Thanks in advance!

Send in the update. Your application is scored based upon your highest Math and English components. All the other scores, regardless of what they are, won't matter.

Will do. Thank you for the advice!

Send them in. Results are superscored.

Note:. Agree with above that NROTC Navy and Nurse Options do indeed superstore.

However Marine Option is different in that it takes only the most recent sitting of the exam. (Math and English)
