Do Oberlin and/or Colorado College superscore (recalculate) ACT?

Test Preparation

<p>Some prominent college counseling lists suggest that Oberlin superscores the SAT, but not the ACT. Their site suggests that they don't don't treat the SAT and ACT differently, but is vague:</p>

<p>"We do require standardized test scores, from either the SAT or the ACT with writing, and we will consider your best score for each subsection if you take the test more than once." </p>

<p>So.. they don't look at the composite? They recalculate it? They do look at the composite?</p>

<p>Same list suggests that Colorado College superscores the ACT, but their website says they don't. Maybe the new flexible testing option could be used to effectively superscore the ACT, or at least 3 sections of it?</p>

<p>Any insight welcome. TIA!</p>

<p>I’m familiar with that list, but it doesn’t seem to be up to date. Also, other lists, like the one below, which also isn’t up to date, offers information that is inconsistent with it. I’m hoping somebody has better information…</p>

<p>This seems to indicate Colorado College superscores SAT but not ACT. They just take the best composite score.

<p>With CC’s new flexible testing policy, students can effectively superscore the ACT by selecting the best three components. Otherwise, if students use the ACT selection, they’ll rely upon the best composite score.</p>
