I took the ACT, got a 33. Took a 5 week, $1000 prep course and took the ACT again, got a 34. Whooee. Wasn't worth the money IMHO. Anything 31 and over puts you in the 99th percentile. Don't kiss JH goodbye either. Colleges look at your ACT, your grades, and your extra curriculars. If you get a 31 on your ACT, have straight A's, and your EC's indicate you're well-rounded, then you're more likely to get in than the guy with a 33 who got straight C's and never did any after school activities.
