<p>My scores are all printed on my school transcript so admissions officers will see them regardless. They cannot be removed for some reason.</p>
<p>Here are my composites and superscores:
ACT: 27, 29, 31 (SS=33)
SAT: 1950, 2080, 2250 (SS=2250-- same scores)</p>
<p>4 schools I’m applying to accept score choice, but some of these encourage the applicant to send in all scores. They are Harvard, Northwestern, Dartmouth, and WUSTL.</p>
<p>So, obviously the 2250 is much better than anything else. Here’s the important part though: sending in all 3 subpar act scores would cost $132.</p>
<p>The problem–if I don’t send in everything, adcoms may think I’m intentionally misrepresenting myself when they see everything on the transcript, but if I do send in everything, it will cost me $132 to mitigate a possible psychological concern.</p>
<p>I’d be willing to pay the price if it is absolutely necessary, so I want your objective thoughts.</p>
<p>Should I send in my act scores (and for that matter, the bad sat scores) knowing they will inevitably be seen on my transcript?</p>
