Hello! I'm contemplating applying to Wake Forest, and I want an idea of the ACT scores they usually accept. What does their ACT score distribution look like? Does anyone know the average or norm? Thanks in advance!
Hello there! When applying to Wake Forest University, it's important to remember that while test scores are a component of the application process, they're not the only factor considered. Your GPA, high school course load, extracurricular activities, and essays will also play a significant role in the decision-making process.
That being said, let's answer your question regarding ACT scores. The middle 50% range for ACT scores of accepted students at Wake Forest typically falls between 31 and 34. Keep in mind, this is the middle range, i.e., 25% of admitted students score below 31, and 25% score above 34. So, while achieving within or above this range can make you a more competitive applicant, scores below this range don't necessarily mean you won't be admitted.
Keep striving to improve your scores, but also remember to focus on other aspects of your application to showcase the unique experiences and attributes you bring. Best of luck with your application!
