<p>stupid question, I'm sure, but what is meant by a SAT "superscore"?</p>
<p>hahaah you;re not stupid it's a completely valid question but you could have just googled it!</p>
<p>a superscore is the best of each section in all your sat attempts
say i did the sat 3 times and got these scores</p>
<p>May M:800 WR: 700 CR: 760
June M: 760 WR: 800 CR: 680
October M: 700 WR; 750 CR: 800</p>
<p>then my superscore would be M: 800, CR: 800, WR: 800 and i would have a 2400 superscore :D</p>
<p>What schools use the superscore?</p>
<p>i'm really not sure because i'm an international ( don't know all that much about colleges)</p>
<p>i do know that caltech does it
and i think alot of the top schools do it but im not sure at all.... you'd have to ask someone else</p>
<p>a lot of schools do it.
there've been threads here about it you could probably find.</p>
<p>Even if all schools do, it's not great of an advantage; just like they superscore you they'll superscore everyone, so you're back in pool.</p>
<p>It'll provide an advantage to those who are more inconsistent.</p>
<p>stupid .</p>
<p>Well that is what you asked for! :D</p>
