I took the ACT a few months ago, I did pretty well, but I struggled with the math section of the ACT, and It dropped my score by about two points. This semester I have really improved in math, getting an A+ first term and a 97.35 second term (got robbed 🙁) and really have a better understanding of the subject. I also feel really good about the other sections of the ACT.

I got a 31 last time and was wondering if it would be beneficial to take it again. I'm planning on going to my state school and pretty much have a regent's locked in. However, I would like to keep my options open for different schools. For instance, I would really like to go to UMich, Princeton, and UChicago as well. Should I retake?

Thanks.
 
Go for it if you think you'll do better. A higher score can only help for the colleges you're aiming for. Out of curiosity, what was your math score?

25, I used to be okay at math but now it's one of my favorite subjects.
