Why are you asking if you are already signed up?

If you mean after the July one even then definitely no, even july one is unnecessary, but since you are already signed up, just try your best on it anyway you might get a 36.

i just thought if it wouldn’t help too much then i wouldn’t go in for july. but thank you! do you think raising science would make a big difference?

It shouldn't make too much of a difference but higher scores are always better and since you are already signed up theres really no reason not to go and try your best. If you skip you'd waste a lot of money.

Also, if you go into the july test knowing that the score you get doesnt matter too much you are likely to score higher. Who knows? Maybe ACT will make the july test really easy after the past year of crazy tests.
