<p>I completely agree with taking the ACT. I scored a 2150 on the SAT and refused to take it again so I took the ACT cold and scored a 33. I did not send SAT scores (only ACT) to the University of Pennsylvania and Brown and got in to both. I also know of a girl who scored in the 1300s for CR+M on the SAT but scored a 36 on the ACT. Good luck!</p>
