<p>From the Yale Daily News:</p>
<p>As future members of the Class of 2010 begin filling out college applications, they might be pleased to know that Yale will give equal weight to the older SAT and the newly revamped SAT, which was administered nationwide for the first time nearly seven months ago.</p>
<p>This year, Yale will accept scores from both the older SAT and the revised SAT, which features a new writing section worth 800 points, interim Dean of Admissions Margit Dahl said. If students submit scores from both versions of the exam, the University will look at both sets of results when making its admissions decisions, Dahl said.</p>
<p>“We just kind of look at them, it’s not like we use one and overlook the other,” Dahl said. “It’s an overall sense of testing strength. You’re looking at both of them to get an overall sense of academic strength along with GPA.”</p>
