no, they won’t completely disregard your test scores.</p>

<p>sat/act are standardized. since class difficulties vary by schools or even teachers, standardized tests are important because they are the same for everyone. if you struggle, keep studying and retaking!

<p>Truth. Standardized tests are the great equalizer, which is why they’re so important. Course rigor and grading can vary wildly from one school to the next, but everyone takes the same SAT/ACT. It’s a way for the Academy, or any other college for that matter, to compare you to other applicants objectively and without bias.</p>

@missmuff

that being said, some people are really bad test takers. the academy’s not going to lock you out because you aren’t stellar on the tests if you’re taking hard classes, doing well, and padding your resume with good ec’s.
