Are ACT Science Scores highly considered? *MIT, Harvard, Yale, UChicago

<p>Hi everybody! :slight_smile:
Do any of these universities pay little attention to the ACT science section?
The MIT Admissions stats doesn’t list a subscore average for ACT science. (<a href=“Admissions statistics | MIT Admissions”>http://mitadmissions.org/apply/process/stats&lt;/a&gt;)</p>

<p>I am asking this because I got a 34 Composite with a 36 Math, 35 English, 36 Reading, 28 SCIENCE, and a 32 combined English/Writing score. My SAT scores are a 750 in Math, 750 in Critical reading, and a 650 in writing.</p>

<p>Should I submit my SAT scores or just my ACT</p>

<p>Well 34 is of course better than a 2150 so if it was me I would just submit the ACT. As for the science section, if you are applying for engineering/applicable science then perhaps they will care, if not then it probably won’t look so bad.</p>

<p>Thank you! I just got my most recent SAT scores- 800 math, 760CR, 730 Writing for a total of 2290. Now what do you think I should do?</p>

<p>Dude, just do both. Lots of kids do that. Besides, your sat score converts approximately to your ACT score, give or take one point, so it just confirms your ACT score.</p>
