Act = Sat + Sat Ii

Applying to College
1

<p>Duke requires the ACT OR the SAT with 2 subject tests. I've only sent in my ACT score because my ACT score is superior to my SAT score, and my 3 subject tests aren't exactly phenomenal (790 in native language, 710 us history, 680 math IIC).</p>

<p>Do you think I should still rush-send these SAT+SAT II scores to Duke?</p>

<p>I also spoke to an admission officer at Wash U and asked them the same question (minus my actual scores), and the lady said that she were me, she would just send in the ACT scores because Wash U doesn't require SAT IIs.</p>

<p>But the thing with Duke is that they require it unless I send in ACTs. I still don't get it - why is ACT = SAT + SAT II???</p>

<p>I don't undersatnd the logic. Why do I get the easy way out?</p>

<p>The ACT includes a science section so maybe that is why? I also know that where I live (North Dakota) the closest place to take the SATII is 100-175 miles away so some people can only take the ACT. My school doesn't even say anything about the SAT besides giving the juniors the option of taking the PSAT.</p>

<p>So then this must hurt me because I live in MA, where the nearest place to take the SAT II is like a mile away.</p>
