Keep in mind that ACT scores are just one part of the application. The admissions officers in Indiana will also want to see a strong academic record, a winning essay, meaningful extracurricular activities and good letters of recommendation. Sometimes, an applicant with high scores but an otherwise weak application will not get into a school. And, at the same time, an applicant with less-than-average scores but a strong application, good writing skills, and demonstrated interested could be accepted. So make sure the rest of your application is strong, even if your scores are not.
