ED & October SAT Question..?

Colleges & Universities University of Pennsylvania
1

<p>So, I’m applying to Penn ED…and I’m also taking SAT I this saturday…
I was wondering if it was possible and if i should send all the scores I have already to Penn right now…
and then send the Oct scores when that comes out?
is that possible? or am i supposed to wait for oct scores and then send ALL my scores at once? i know penn doesn’t allow score choice…so will ibe able to send only october scores later on?</p>

<p>also…i know that collegeboard give you the option of automatically sending scores as soon as they come out…so i won’t be able to see the score before i look at it
do you think this is risky or should i just use this option?
currently i have a superscored 2300…</p>

<p>Just send them right now. Retaking a 2300 superscore is a waste of time and money. Why would you risk Penn not getting your scores on time to do this when there is really zero benefit? Once you get to a certain point on the SAT it’s not important any more, subjective factors come into play.</p>

<p>I was wondering the same thing actually, except I have a 2110 and it would definitely be beneficial for me to retake…</p>

<p>The question still stands: should we send what we have now or wait until afterwards?</p>

<p>Hey–Remember that you HAVE to send all SAT scores if you are going that route, which includes this October’s SAT score.</p>

<p>I don’t think you need to retake your SAT at all if you have a superscore of 2300 already… I would just send what you have. It might look bad if you keep on taking the SAT over again and only raise a few more points each time, or if you do worse. =/</p>

<p>Same question here… I sent ALL my scores, including the Oct 1 SAT. They say they won’t be available/sent to schools until the Oct 1 SAT is available. Is that OK for Penn ED deadline?</p>

<p>@levinel: Penn even takes November scores (rushed) for ED applicants, so October is more than fine.</p>

<p>@levinel: No problem! Study (relatively) hard, be confident, and relax–it’ll go by quickly! :)</p>
