Stanford sat and act policy?

For the SAT, we will focus on the highest individual Writing, highest Math, and highest Critical Reading score we receive from across test sittings.
For the ACT, we will focus on the highest Composite score, as well as the highest Combined English/Writing score. If a student takes the ACT more than once, we will mix and match to focus on the highest Composite score and the highest Combined English/Writing Score. We will also be sensitive to individual sub-scores.

This is what was said on the admissions site… Does this mean they don’t care about ACT Math/Science…??

And I heard Stanford doesn’t accept score choice policy…

So does that mean that if I take SAT three times and get 800 on reading the first one, 800 on math second, and 800 on writing on last one, they would consider my score to be 2400?? (Not saying I’m going to try that way, but)

What does it mean by “mix and match to focus on the highest Composite score and the highest Combined English/Writing Score?” Is it saying they are going to pull out only the best scores from the tests I’ve taken?? SO~ CONFUSING ~ HELP~
