Mistake on CommonApp!

<p>I just noticed a mistake on my common app. A lower composite ACT grade was entered by accident. I emailed my admissions rep and I plan to call tmrw, but since I applied ED II, I’m not sure if I notified them in time. Will admissions officers look at standardized test scores on the application or will they look at the scores on the official report?</p>

<p>If they are doing things by the book, they will be looking at the official ACT results. And they will forgive you for your mistake, especially since the error was against your self-interest.</p>

<p>My new favorite phrase on CC (which will henceforth be seen in many threads): We are not jerks.</p>

<p>I mean, I know this is going to sound like a low bar to set, but always remember: we are not jerks.</p>

<p>Would a not-jerk prevent you acceptance just because of a small mistake that you have now corrected? Nope. So neither would we.</p>
