<p>I am hoping that Dean J answers this question for my daughter.
My daughter submitted Common App for EA to UVA today. On the application she listed 3 dates that she took ACT. Out of those 3 ACT results, she had the best composite score on April 2012 test. However, the best score for two of the sections (Reading and Math) are on different test dates.</p>

<p>She already sent her April ACT scores few weeks ago even before the submission of Common App. Should she send her other ACT scores from different dates also since she put it on her Common App? Or it doesn't really matter.</p>

<p>Thank you so much in advance!</p>

<p>You didn’t quite ask about ACT super scoring, however the following thread may help you. Look specifically at Dean J’s response in post #6.</p>

<p>Based on the above information it may be in your daughters best interest to send all ACT scores and let the system pull the highest composite and highest sub scores since some of those dates contain higher sub scores not associated with the highest composite.</p>

<p>Thank you for the info! I guess it is just best to send all scores.</p>
