Just throw away the ACT?!

Test Preparation
1

<p>So, i took my SATs, and signed up for ACTs before i saw my scores. Im happy with my SATs but people have said that no matter what, colleges wont see your ACT scores if you just throw them out. I figured that if thats the case then why not just go for it because theres no harm?</p>

<p>but i also have heard that if youve taken the SAT before, colleges see your ACT because theyre on the same sheet and I cant discard the ACT scores now that ive taken the SAT...i dont know what to believe, any help?</p>

<p>Isn't the ACT administered by a different organization than the SAT? In which case, the score report from the Collegeboard with your SAT scores won't show your ACT scores.</p>

<p>The exception could be that your high school lists all test scores on your transcript...</p>

<p>Just don't give your HS code when signing up for the ACT. Then you're in control of who sees it. You can have it sent after the test for a small fee.</p>
