Do you have to submit all your scores for ACT?

<p>I know you have to submit all SAT scores, but does that apply to ACT?</p>

<p>I mean, if you want them to consider your ACTs, yeah?</p>

<p>But I know the ACTs cost $10 for each test day you send, not a full score report, so I didn’t send all of my scores cause I didn’t have the money to. I called the office about doing this and they said they “advised” that I send all my scores because if one section is higher another day they can put that on my app. But that wasn’t the case so I didn’t send it.</p>

<p>Did they make you self report the rest of your scores?</p>

<p>Does anybody else know for sure?</p>

<p>If you have a higher subsection score on another test taking date, then do it. If not, then don’t. I highly doubt that 1) they will be able to tell if you didn’t send all your scores and 2) it would affect your admission if they did.</p>

<p>Wait, so if you are relying off ACT for admission, can you only send ACT and not any of the SATs if you have taken them?</p>

<p>In essence:
-If you supply both ACT and SAT (and subject tests), do they just care about which one is better?
-If you supply only SAT (and subject tests) BUT you have taken the ACT do you have to submit the ACT?
-Vice Versa to question two switching the order of the words ACT and SAT (and subject tests) in the question. </p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Anonymous, I put on my common app that I took it twice but only sent one set of scores. I got in so I guess that isn’t a problem…</p>

<p>Hardworking:
-Yes they will look at what looks better comparatively

  • Yes, Penn wants you to send all your scores from every test and every test day. </p>

<p>If you took the SATs and don’t put it on your common app cause you only want them to see ACTs, will they know? Doubt it. But if you want to take that chance you can.
I personally don’t think it’s a big deal but I don’t want to give you bad advice on a forum. Do what you think is best.</p>

<p>You’re supposed to (officially) submit ALL SAT and ACT scores. I’m sure many do not, but check the Penn website and previous threads about this.</p>

<p>Oh shoot! I put all three of my ACT test scores on my app…but I only plan on submitting 2 since my 3rd test date didn’t really help. Should I take it off CommonApp?</p>

<p>I think it’s great if Penn and other schools want to see all test dates, and it’s a great system I’m sure. But I don’t have money to spend an extra $30 sending test scores because the ACT charges per test date. I really feel they should take this into consideration</p>

<p>I’m assuming it is a bad idea to not send a score. I have have a score that I do not want them to see, but I have others that I would like them to see.</p>

<p>Did anybody not send all their scores? I am just worried because it costs $10 for EACH test.</p>

<p>I got a 31 on one sitting, and a 30 prior. One section of my 30 was better than the 31, and I listed that…Do I need to send the 30 test score to? This is kind of costly.</p>

<p>Anonymous, I JUST said I didn’t send all my scores cause I didn’t have the money.</p>

<p>I forgot the else. I was asking if anybody else did.</p>

<p>I talked to an admissions officer and she said that usually you can self report all your ACT scores and just ask ACT to send your highest one. They understand the cost factor, I’m sure. You can always e-mail your regional representative.</p>

<p>No, you do not have to submit all your ACT scores.</p>

<p>@Burnout; others: I believe it’s send your best one (from ACT company) and self-report the rest? </p>

<p>Happy New Year to all!</p>

<p>Do they recalculate a new composite score based on your superscored ACT?</p>
