<p>I think putting PSAT scores in one’s application is fine (don’t remember if there’s a specific place to put them?). I think including scores in one’s essay can be a bit gauche (what do the rest of you think???). In all the essays that kids have sent me to review, none have ever mentioned their scores. </p>
<p>Since your son seems to be ready to get better SAT scores, then just have him retake if a higher SAT is desired. It sounds like you’re concerned that schools will see the 2000 SAT when he sends his SAT IIs and think less of him even with the better ACT score? If so, then just have him retake. One Saturday morning and the issue will be fixed. :)</p>
