SAT and SAT Subject Tests

<p>Basically:</p>

<p>My SAT score is a 1700 (taken it only once), and my ACT Composite is a 33. If you’re baffled, read on.</p>

<p>I had to take the SAT while I had a flu because it was required for admission into NCSSM and I was taking it on the last test date. So I had no choice. Fever, coughing, etc. got me that score. But whatevs.</p>

<p>I want to go to Columbia or Dartmouth, both of whom require SAT subject tests. I’m not sure about this, but if I submit my SAT subject tests, do my SAT I scores automatically get sent on the same report? </p>

<p>I don’t want them to see the SAT score, and was planning on only applying with the ACT score. I do plan on retaking the SAT March of this year and I am predicting 2050+. The effed up SAT was sophomore year.</p>

<p>Advice?</p>

<p>Columbia does not allow Score Choice I believe. Dartmouth does allow it. Score Choice allows you to hide the SAT score.</p>

<p>Many schools (like, for example, Yale) allow you to choose to submit the ACT score or a package of SAT & Subject Test scores. So, I’d just go ahead and submit only the ACT score and forget about the SAT.</p>

<p>Do check the school’s admissions website to make sure what is required. Other schools (like Harvard and Princeton) require 2 Subject Tests whether you take the ACT or the SAT.</p>

<p>Columbia requires you to submit all standardized test scores. Your ACT will trump your SAT, however, so don’t worry about it.</p>
