ACT overruling SAT (if no SAT II)?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Brown University

<p>As we probably all know by now, Brown accepts either SAT Reasoning AND 2 SAT Subject test scores OR ACT (with writing) scores. I never took the subject tests, but my reasoning test score was near-perfect. I did pretty awful on the ACT. I’m wondering if they will even take a look at my SAT score despite me including no subject test scores. Will they only take the ACT into account?</p>

<p>If the subject tests are really important, should I take them this January, or will that be too late to be taken into consideration with my application?</p>

<p>Thanks, guys.</p>

<p>If you don't submit any SAT II scores, Brown will be forced to consider only your ACT -- or to discard your application as incomplete. The subject tests are really important because they are required (unless you submit the ACT); and yes, you can take them in January and have them be considered with your application.</p>
