Admissions Advice

Should I submit my SAT or ACT score?
Answered

I took the SAT twice and the ACT twice.

For the SAT my super score is 1490 (750 English, 740 Math).

For the ACT, my super score is 34 (35 English, 35 Math, 34 Reading, 33 Science) and my highest composite score at one sitting is 32.

Should submit BOTH of these scores, or JUST the ACT or SAT?

Submit both

As others have said, I also recommend submitting both since they're both similarly competitive and great scores!

Honestly, they both super score around the same, and since neither of us is mind readers, I would submit both scores since it can't hurt.

Keep in mind that some schools in the midwest like Notre Dame, Rice get more ACT scores so they like to see SAT scores, and on the East/West coast schools, they get more SAT scores and like to see high ACT scores. You never know who is reading your application.

I sent both SAT/ACT and they both were like 1500/35.

Hope that helps.

Submit both, especially since most schools are test-optional this year. With such impressive scores, submitting both won't hurt and will only strengthen your application.

I would definitely submit both. It shows you are a strong student. Two can’t hurt.
