Cal: SAT jazz

<p>Did anyone else send in their SAT scores to Cal? I know that on the application they asked for your best score in a single sitting, but my best combined score is slightly less embarassing. Do you think this will be taken into consideration? </p>

<p>Being that decsions come out in 12 days or so, it realistically doesnt matter, but I was just wondering if anyone had any thoughts on the matter.</p>

<p>weren't you supposed to send in your official score report with your application anyway?</p>

<p>They don't take a composite score, they take a single sitting. You should have sent them in a long time ago. I almost used rush delivery to send mine because I sent mine on December 10th. If you haven't done so already, do so now and call them for the mistake.</p>

<p>Whoah dude, you gave them the combined score instead?</p>

<p>I don't know how serious that is to the UCs, but that's probably not good.</p>

<p>They're probably done with decisions already.</p>

<p>I sent them in around december too, and i reported a single sitting score on my app, but my best single sitting score includes a terrible terrible math score. I was just wondering if they might refer to the other scores and give me the benefit of the doubt.</p>

<p>Ohh, that leads to a good question. Is it better to have a higher sitting with a low score in math if you're doing a science, or lower sitting with higher score in math?</p>

<p>If you're not applying to engineering, it doesn't matter. It's better to have 740, 740, 720 than 800, 800, 600 though.</p>

<p>No. They only look at single sitting.</p>

<p>Knowing the UCs, they're probably not.</p>

<p>It doesn't matter. They look at your top single-sitting. SAT II math might help if you got a high score on that.</p>

<p>I'm thinking they're done anyway. Decisions are out soon.</p>
