I think BYU is not accepting some of these ultra top

That’s just silly. It makes mush more sense to take a 34 ACT than a 26

If it is, it would be honest for them to say that.

Wrong. Getting a 34 ACT puts you in the 99th percentile of test takers

Richbyu

2/15/19 10:22pm

I think the average ACT score is now around 30 isn’t it

kotacoug

And the difference between a 28 and 36 is the same percentile wise as a 20 and

Actually yes, I think it’s worth following up.
