do colleges look at superscore?

Test Preparation
1

<p>i am in year 12 doing the IB program. i took sat reasoning this summer and got 1930 (math 730, cr 540 and writing 660). i am planning to take sat again this November and i will be applying to purdue university, UIUC, UCLA. so my question is, do these universities look at the sat super score or individual. because im aiming total score more than 2000. so if these colleges look at the superscore then i will concentrate only on cr section and will aim around 650. will that be fine, because i may get less than 660 in writing and 730 math. so will this actually reduce my chances at these colleges for eg if i get 650 cr, 550 math, 520 writing? sat score=1820 but superscore = 2040
any help will be appreciated.
thanx</p>

<p>Some schools care only about superscore, while other selective colleges (eg Stanford) check all scores. Look at the school you want to apply to and see whether or not they superscore.</p>

<p>Depends on the U. GL</p>

<p>If you intentionally tank the other tests to concentrate on bringing up one score it is likely some schools will care about that. If you look at the link sosomenza posted you can UCLA is one that looks at ALL scores.</p>
