I wanted to know if UT accepted the December SAT and ACT because I think that if I took those, it would increase my chances of getting in significantly, especially the ACT. The ACT is on December 12th and SAT is Dec. 5th. Not as confident in SAT as ACT though.

Test scores accepted through December 31. Right hand side of page.
Yeah, but do you think that the scores will reach there by December 31st?
Dec 5 SAT looks like yes. This site says the scores are available to begin sending on Dec 22.

ACT on Dec 12th - very doubtful, based on this page that says score reports available 3 - 8 weeks after
the test date. Also, you would take the ACT with writing - and scoring for the writing portion slows it down.
Says report for that is available 5 - 8 weeks after test date.

Do you have the results from your October SAT and ACT?
Also, are any of your dual credit or AP classes this year in Calculus and/or Econ? These are
really hard courses freshman year at UT for McCombs students and also for those students that
are working towards internally transferring.
Dang, I really wanted to take ACT again because I’m much stronger in it. Yes, I do have my results from my October SAT and ACT. SAT CR+M around 1200 and ACT 27 ( I know, weak scores). Rank is top 4.6% tho. Been dreaming about going to McCombs for the longest but I don’t know whether it will happen with these test scores.
I am currently taking AP Calculus and AP Economics. Doing pretty good in both classes and hopeful for the AP exam. I had a question tho, if I get the credit for Calculus, I only get out of Calculus 1 right? I still have to take Calculus 2?
Keep in mind though that it sometimes takes a couple of weeks for the scores to actually be sent/received.
I’d take both tests and hope that your scores come back fast, but be sure to send in your old scores just in case the new ones aren’t ready in time.
@Musman15 to answer your question about Calculus - if you are in AP Calc AB and score high enough on the AP test, you get out of Calc 1. If you are in BC, you test out of both Calc 1 and 2.
