ACT score vs SAT score

<p>I'm not sure which to send in. I'm applying as a Literature or Philosophy major.</p>

<p>SAT: Critical Reading - 740; Math - 570; Writing - 650; Essay - 10</p>

<p>ACT: English - 29; Math - 29; Reading - 31; Science - 21; Combined English/Writing - 27; Writing - 08</p>

<p>Thanks for the advice!</p>

<p>Probably not much difference, especially if you’re applying as a rising junior.</p>

<p>What is your ACT composite score? A 29 ACT is about equivalent to your 1310 CR+M SAT.</p>

<p>I would send your SAT scores; they’re slightly better (See [here](<a href=“http://www.act.org/aap/concordance/]here[/url]”>The ACT Test for Students | ACT)</a>).</p>

<p>^Should be a 28.</p>

<p>Thanks for the replies! I’m applying as a sophomore transfer.</p>

<p>My composite score is a 28. The ACT is better for my math, but the SAT is pretty good for my critical reading. One one hand I want to show that I’m very literature prone, but on the other hand I don’t want to be viewed as deficient in math. Hence the quandary.</p>

<p>Your SAT score definitely looks better. As a lit/philosophy major, I don’t think they’ll be harsh with that math score, since you’re a rising junior.</p>
