Can I list my superscored ACT score instead of my highest individual one?

So ACT scores are calculated by averaging out your English, Math, Reading, Science scores, each section also out of 36, giving you the composite score.

My highest is a 32 composite in one sitting. I also got a 31C in a diff sitting, with a perfect 36 math score. Now, superscored (taking the highest from each section from different tests and averaging that), my ACT composite would be 33. I used the 33 score to apply to colleges which accepted superscores.

Would it be okay to list this on my resume:

"ACT: 33/36 (Math: 36)"

or is that stretching it? I'm a rising sophomore if that matters.
