On the ACT, do most schools want you to take the writing section?

Question

Because it's only going to lower my score, and I don't want to take it if I don't need it, but if it hurts you to not take it, I should probably take it.

Does that make sense lol, that's an example of how bad I am at trying to write down what I'm thinking lol.

Answer 1

go to tha site && it'll have tha schools on there that either require it, recommend it, or dont want it at all

Answer 2

its required by most college, however,it does not affect the composite score.

Answer 3

The ACT has a list of the colleges that do and don't require the writing section of the ACT. Search for the college you want to go to and it will say whether you need the writing section or not.
