<p>My family has been endlessly debating which SAT scores my daughter should submit and we can't agree. She's taken the tests three times.</p>
<p>The first time she scored:
CR: 600 / M: 540 / W:700</p>
<p>The second time:
CR: 740 / M: 570 / W:660</p>
<p>The third time:
CR: 600 / M: 530 / W:720</p>
<p>I'm suggesting she send in the first two scores. She can still keep a 700 in writing from the first scores and she shows improvement. I worry that showing the third scores, even though it's her highest writing score, will just create questions.</p>
<p>The rest of the family disagrees and thinks we should send the last two sets of scores because it leads to the highest overall superscore.</p>
<p>I don’t understand why your family is having disagreements over a 20-point difference. Something that small is well within the margin of error and will not impact adcoms’ decisions at all.</p>
<p>There’s no anger involved in the disagreement. We just don’t share the same opinion and I wanted advice. I agree entirely that 20-pts is not the issue. My question is whether submitting her last set of scores, which show a significant drop on her CR and an even further drop on math scores, was wise. Her last scores have the highest writing score of the three but her first scores have the second highest writing score.</p>
<p>That said, the decision has already been made. She submitted the last two sets.</p>
<p>Do they superscore? If so the 700W from 1 is about the same as 720W. </p>
<p>1 and 3 look nearly identical. #2 almost looks like a different kid. I’d suppress either 1 or 3 on the very off chance anyone starts wondering. If you get rid of 3 it looks like she is trending upward.</p>
