Hello! I'm currently stressing out over admission tests, and I was wondering if Duke University superscores either the SAT or ACT? Knowing this could help me with my test strategy. Thanks in advance!
Yes, Duke University does superscore both the SAT and ACT. If you take the SAT or ACT multiple times, Duke will consider the highest section scores across all test dates when evaluating your application. For the SAT, they will review the highest scores from the Evidence-Based Reading and Writing and Math sections. For the ACT, they will consider the highest scores from each of the four sections: English, Math, Reading, and Science.
With this information, you can focus on improving specific sections in your retakes if you aren't satisfied with your initial scores. Just be sure to send all your test scores to Duke so they can consider the best combination of your section scores when assessing your application. Good luck with your testing and application process!
