Do lower SAT scores undermine high ACT scores?

Applying to College
1

<p>As a clueless Junior last year, I sent off SAT scores to colleges I'm interested in , but I did not have the best SAT scores (620math O_O;; )... then I took the ACT (again, sent results cluelessly) 27 composite. Then, over the summer I retook the ACT and got a 32 compy. My question is: will the fact that my SAT score and ACT score don't match the same percentile look bad to ads. counselors? Will the fact that I brought up a 27 composite to a 32 look good or bad?</p>

<p>Thanks for any insight!</p>

<p>Most colleges will look at the highest score.</p>

<p>Nope...the college will take either score (i.e. whatever score you want to submit).</p>

<p>32 is a great score.</p>

<p>But will the fact that they've seen all my scores, including the lower ones, drag down the value of my higher scores?</p>

<p>They say no... but with human nature, it's hard not to consider your earlier, lower scores.</p>
