I think your SAT II scores are fine… but if you don’t want them to be considered, don’t send them! If you are taking the ACTs, you don’t need to submite any SATIIs!



Not true!!!



All applicants to Dartmouth, including those who apply from foreign countries, are required to take the following:

Either the Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT I) or the examination of the American College Testing Program (ACT).

Please Note: Students may submit scores from either the old SAT I or the new SAT I (with writing). Similarly, students may submit scores from either the regular ACT (if taken prior to February 2005) or from the ACT with writing (if taken in February 2005 or after).

Any two SAT II Subject Tests.
The TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) is strongly encouraged for foreign students for whom English is not the principal language of instruction and for non-native speakers of English. TOEFL is given at centers throughout the world and must be taken early enough so that the results are reported to Dartmouth by January of the year of intended entrance.
All testing must be completed by January of the senior year in high school. If standardized testing is repeated, the Admissions Committee only considers your highest scores. Information and test registration forms may be obtained from your high school guidance office or by writing to the College Board or the American College Testing Program. Dartmouth’s College Board number is 3351, and the ACT code number is 2508.

Plus, if you apply Early Decision, nobody has to submit them (at least not until after they accept you).



I would not recommend this strategy as you want your D to be evaluated with the most complete package as possible especially if she is applying ED.
