<p>I recently applied ED for cal poly but i only sent in my SAT (1230, reading+math) and not my act (26) because I was worried my ACT would look bad on my application=/. was that a bad idea? I know they prefer the ACT but I didn’t see the point in sending it when my SAT is better. Should I send my act, and if I should, how do I change that part of my application if I already sent it?</p>

<p>Also, I wasn’t sure if we are supposed to send in our AP scores with our application.</p>

<p>I’d greatly appreciate it if someone could offer some advice=) Thanks.</p>

<p>I wouldn’t advise my child to send in ACT if she is in your situation since your SAT is much better. CalPoly’s common data set 2007-2008 shows 96.2% submit SAT while only 49.6% submit ACT, so you should be fine w/o sending ACT.</p>

<p>You don’t need to send in AP scores at this time. Wait til you get the admission and only send the AP scores to the campus you intend to enroll.</p>

<p>On the application website, it says act is the preferred test,</p>
