Blueridge Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 I am seeing 2 options for the ACT exam...the one with NO writing and the one PLUS writing. Which one do most people choose? Many thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rionne Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Most colleges require the one with writing, I think. If you dc has a particular college in mind check their website. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jane in NC Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Most colleges require the one with writing, I think. If you dc has a particular college in mind check their website. :-) Most?? I'm not sure about that. Many schools disregard the writing portion if it is submitted. The best advice is to check with the college. Warning: the writing portion of the ACT comes at the end. My son was ready to eat his test by the time this rolled around. The SAT has its writing portion at the beginning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rionne Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 The ones we've been looking at for DD have required it but I agree that it is a pretty pointless section. Sorry if the "most" was misleading though, I was just under that impression. Checking the school's website or checking with them directly is always the best way to go though, I agree. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creekland Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 It's been a mix with us as to whether colleges wanted it or not. Therefore, my default position is to have mine do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueridge Posted February 26, 2010 Author Share Posted February 26, 2010 Thanks, ladies. I went ahead and signed her up for the test plus writing. She writes like the wind, so she would have been disappointed not to have it LOL. So, we're all set for April 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
