<p>Hey,i have a problem; anyone there to help me?. I have taken sat last year but the score was low so i do not want to show that score although colleges want/encourage to send all the score to use for highest score selection.I think that does not benefit me so i decided to send the score of my coming sat whatever the score be. Does that effect my application ?</p>
<p>I think you should send all the scores. Most of the colleges look at best section score across all test dates. You mentioned that your sat scores last year were pretty low. But, you didn’t mention if the scores of all the sections were low. Suppose if you have got 750+ in math and low in other two sections.
And if you better in two sections but your score in mathematics in below or somewhat same then sending all the scores may be better. Also college will prefer improvement in scores in consequent test dates.
But, if you think that all of your section scores are much lower and you can better in all the sections than you may send only one test date scores.</p>
