Hello all,
Currently my SAT stands at a 1730 (520 CR 580 M 630 W), and I plan on taking it one last time on Saturday. I have heard contradicting opinions on whether or not Penn State takes your super score, and also whether or not Penn Sate looks at your writing score at all. I’m asking this so I know whether or not I should review some writing questions before the test in order to maintain/improve that score, instead of just focusing on reading and math.
Thanks in advance.
We do not superscore.
Writing scores are used for placement in freshman English.

If you maintain your W score, it will fall in the middle 50%; math is mid 50% also. I would be more worried about CR, which is currently below the 25th percentile.
Thanks for your response.
So to be clear, the writing score does not affect your chances of getting in?
I have studied a lot of vocab over the summer so I should see at least a minimal increase in CR.
