how schools (ND in particular) look at ACT scores? Specifically, our daughter had perfect scores on the Reading and English sections, but just "ok" in math and science. I know some schools superscore, but I don't think ND does.
I was wondering if in her case (since she is planning to major in English) they would give her more consideration due to her scores in areas relevant to her major.
Anyone have thoughts on this? She's already been accepted to her other choices. ND is the only "top" school she has an interest in applying to.
