<p>So i am a junior in high school and I have been doing some research and I am really interested in UCSB and I am from the Midwest and we are all ACT crazy here and so if my ACT scores are better than my SAT scores (I haven’t taken it) can i just send my ACT scores or will that hurt me? And is a 4.07 W gpa good enough to get it in?</p>
<p>ACT scores are fine. It won’t hurt your chances for admission if you use ACT instead of SAT. Your GPA good, but try to bring it up anyway.</p>
<p>I’m from the Midwest also, only being a senior and having already applied, I feel I can help you out here.</p>
<p>You can send in your ACT scores, as long you take the ACT plus writing test (one with an essay portion). But, you must also send in two SAT II (subject test) scores also. I also took the SAT just to be sure and sent in that score also. I think I sent in all my SAT and ACT scores. I don’t remember.</p>
<p>Send in all your scores (SAT + ACT + Subject Tests). The UC system will take the highest scores on SAT or ACT from a single sitting (no super scoring) and convert it into a UC score. They mean it when they say they don’t care how many times you took which tests. They will only account for your highest.</p>
