i definately recommend taking it again, because the first time i took it i got a 27 and the second time a 32.  everyone i've ever talked to got a better score the second time, and that 32 got me an extra $9000 in scholarships

it is recommended to only take the ACT once as should be the same for the SAT aside from the fact that they just want your money so they encourage multiple retakes.

Can somebody give me info on ACT's because my guidance counselor told me she doesnt want me to take them and wont give me info on them, but they seem so much better then sat's.

i got a 30 the first time, but I'm taking it again. You can get mad scholarship money for good scores.

yeah, same here man.  I didn't do any prep course so I didn't know much about the test and got screwed over on science and writing cause i didn't time myself.  I got a 36 on math, 33 on english and then a 29 on both science and writing.
