Penn's Testing Policy

[tux08902]

<p>The following is from Yale’s admissions FAQ. Does UPenn use SAT, SAT II, and ACT scores similarly? </p>

<p>

In evaluating SAT or ACT results, does Yale consider scores from previous test dates?</p>

<p>Yes, in the sense that readers of the application will see all of the test results that are in your file, since you are asked to self-report your scores from all test dates. The formal admissions committee that meets to vote on applications, however, will see only the highest score you received on any individual test, if you have repeated any of the tests. For the SAT I, the admissions committee will consider the highest score from each of the test’s three sections. For the ACT, the admissions committee will consider the highest composite score.

<p>And, is there a spot on the Penn App to indicate AP scores? Can they help to even out some lower grades or lower tests in the same subject on SAT IIs?</p>
