<p>If it was a disadvantage to submit just the ACT, Yale would require everyone to submit SAT 2’s… The admissions officers I’ve talked to were all really cool, and just said, to be honest, they really don’t care when it comes to SAT vs. ACT. It’s really a small part that just gets you through the ‘door,’ and puts your transcript in perspective (however if you aren’t from the midwest and you take the ACT, it might be questionable). Hence, why Yale seems to emphasize the importance of the high school transcript over any other statistical document.</p>
<p>Last year, when planning standardized testing, I emailed the admissions officer for my region and asked him if submitting SAT2s in addition to my ACT would be helpful. He told me to just submit the ACT, and anything more would just be unnecessary.</p>
