Bad SAT Decent ACT

<p>Do you guys think a decent ACT score, 31 or above, can make up a bit for a more less than decent SAT score?</p>

<p>Colleges look at your highest score.</p>

<p>they consider your highest score, so as long as you have one high one, the other really won't matter (because some are just better at one than the other and some can take both)</p>

<p>thanks to both of you</p>

<p>And no matter what your SAT score is, a 31 is quite strong. Maybe it doesn't seem like it with the CC community, but the group of people who care enough to surf forums about the tests after taking them tend to also be pretty good at them. Statistically speaking, a 31 is strong. I'd submit both, though. Despite one being higher than the other, my feeling is that colleges prefer seeing all the scores you have. I may be wrong, though.</p>

<p>Thanks Pajkaj. Yeah, I'll definitely take your advice and submit both.</p>
