Confused with the SAT scorechoice process?

<p>Could someone clarify what I can do.
I have taken two SATs (2150, 2140), one ACT(35), one Subject Test (Math 2 800), and planning on two more subject tests (USH June, Phys Oct).</p>

<p>So, if I only want to send my ACT, can I still send my subject tests without the SATs?</p>

<p>Since the subject tests and the SAT are both in collegeboard, if you send one does it require you to send all (if college does not use scorechoice)?</p>

<p>Please don't post that page where collegeboard denotes which school takes scorechoice or not. I want to know if you can disregard your SAT completely if you have an ACT, while also sending the subject tests. It might sound a bit confusing but please bear with me.</p>

<p>That actually depends on the schools you’re applying to. Different schools have different policies when it comes to admissions and standardized testing. For more information just go to the Admissions / Requirements tab of your school of choice and check what they want.</p>

<p>For example, one of my schools wants:
SAT Reasoning OR ACT with Writing OR three SAT subject tests.
Meaning: I can send in the one that I’ve scored highest on. But if I’ve scored high on both the ACT and the subject tests, I’m not limited to only one. Sending in more tests could give you an advantage over candidates who chose to send only one. </p>

<p>However, other schools will require SAT + 2 subject tests, or ACT + 2 subject tests, etc. So check, and if you can’t find the needed information on their website, email the ADCOM.</p>

<p>Also, You send each test separately . For each test you’ve taken, you make a list of the colleges that you send them to. Meaning you can send your Reasoning to only 5 colleges, but you can send your subject scores to 17.</p>

<p>I hope you understand what I mean by this. </p>

<p>Okay thanks!</p>

<p>Say I score poorly on my US History, but exceptional on Physics. In my case, could I “delete” my US History? Usually on websites they only specify they want all SAT REASONING scores, so do subject tests work in the same way or are they similar to how AP scores are reported (don’t send if bad, send if good)?</p>

<p>Again, depends on the school. e.g. UPenn wants all scores. It’s best to check the college websites directly.</p>
