<p>It may vary from school to school, but in general do they weigh SAT or ACT scores more heavily?</p>

2

<p>UCs don’t have a preference. They accept both and weigh both equally :)</p>

<p>Do they require both?</p>

4

<p>No, most people usually just take one. You can take two, but you shouldn’t unless your score is drastically different between the two.</p>

5

<p>If you do good on like the SAT but bad on the ACT or vice versa could you not send them the scores of the exam you did bad on?</p>

6

<p>Or if you like take the exam you have to send them the scores you got on it?</p>

<p>From the UC website:</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>So you have to send them all and they will use the highest in their calculations. They understand that students often have an affinity for one test or the other. </p>
