<p>I am in the same situation though I am a senior this year and will be receiving an AA degree when I graduate high school in May.</p>
<p>I’m not sure if this applies to states schools but if you are planning to apply to any private colleges GeekMom63 is right; be prepared to have to apply as a freshman. I contacted many of the private colleges I was going to apply to (Harvard, Stanford, Columbia and Pepperdine) and they all told me I would have to apply as a freshman because I would still be in highschool at the time of the application and that my credits would just be transferred after I was accepted (this seems to be the general rule when it comes to applying). If this is the case then you will still need to take the SATs and/or ACT in order to complete your applications for private colleges.</p>
<p>Is there any particular reason why you don’t want to take the tests other then you don’t feel like you focused on them enough? I barely studied (if at all) for the test and still pulled out an acceptible score (1870) and was accepted to my only/top choice school (Pepperdine) without a problem. Would it really hurt to take them?</p>
<p>Also I think being categorized as an incoming freshman helped with my application because my AA stood out more among the freshman applicant pool than it would have in the transfer pool. </p>
<p>Again, this may only apply to private colleges but I think this is also true of public schools.</p>
