Submit all scores or just ACT?

<p>I have a choice of sending just my ACT (30, going to work on that) versus ACT plus ALL of my SAT scores, of which they all are not necessarily amazing. </p>

<p>The choice is between submitting:

  • only the ACT (30)
  • or the ACT (30) AND US History (780), Literature (650, 600), Mathematics I (TBD but around 600), Spanish (540, 520), Biology (560), SAT I (1830- 650CR,620W,550M)</p>

<p>My school recommends that I send them all since they will only use the good scores, but after too much time on CC, that seems like that would be a large mistake. </p>

<p>Which should I choose?</p>

<p>I would do just the ACT b/c although the US history and lit are ok, some of the 500 scores aren’t the best thing admissions counselors want to see</p>

<p>submit the above par act scores. submit the only scores only if you feel comfortable.
taking those tests shows your willingness to challenge yourself…</p>

<p>Your ACT is at the low end of the 25:75 range right now, sending your SAT IIs (all, as Y does not accept score choice) only reinforces the fact that your standardized testing is relatively low. Only one of your SAT scores is competitive, the others are below or way below par for Y.</p>
