<p>A 30 on the ACT falls out of the 25-75 range. Would it be a god idea to report it? On the report it said that a 30 is in the 96% percentile or so, which was surprising. I did get a 2170 composite on the SATs though.</p>
<p>Any thoughts</p>
<p>What did you get on your subject tests?</p>
<p>If I were you, I would just report the SATI. It doesnt matter how you did on the subject tests, because you have to submit them whether you submit an ACT or SAT.
Your ACT of 30 = 1980 on the SAT
SAT of 2170=32-33 ACT
SAT score is much more competitive of the two</p>
<p>rightwing- you don't actually have to submit SATIIs if you submit the ACT.</p>
<p>regardless, i say just send the SAT.</p>
<p>I agree with Vagangirl. Just send the SAT. If your ACT when it was converted into a composite SAT score was higher than your ACT score, admissions would have counted your ACT score instead, since they count the higher of the two. Since your ACT score converted to an SAT score is much lower than your SAT score, I would not send it. Make sure you have taken the three SAT II subject tests.
If you have not taken the three SAT II subject tests and you send both the ACT and the SAT I thinking that sending the ACT means you will not have to send the subject tests, I do not think you will get the result you want. What I mean is that if you send the ACT alone, you dont need the subject tests. However if you send the ACT and the SAT I, they will count whichever is higher. However if they count the SAT I instead of the ACT, since that is higher, they will probably still want the subject tests. You cant count half of this and half of that.</p>
<p>Thanks for the input. I haven't taken the subject tests yet - this Friday I am taking all three.</p>
<p>a 2170 SAT score for admission to Yale?</p>
<p>Citation X- whats wrong with a 2170? I understand it's not your perfect 2400 or high 2300's, but test scores aren't everything. If the rest of ur application is strong, it can compensate for it.</p>
<p>Yale's 25-75% range for SATs: 700-790</p>
<p>I'm in there.</p>
<p>^^Why are you getting so defensive about a post not directed towards you? Truth be told, at a competitive school like Yale, anything short of perfection certainly hurts in the admissions process since you are competing with so many qualified applicants who have no clearly defined weakness.</p>
<p>Typically in elite universities that range (of the most recent enrolled class) includes large numbers of (relatively) low SAT scoring URMs, so it is a bit deceptive</p>
<p>Where's the "range" for non-URM admittees?</p>
<p>^^ I don't know where u got the 'defensive' bit from, but I was trying to clarify that there is nothing wrong with having a lower SAT score becuase ther have been numerous cases where the "perfect" scoring applicants are rejected for those with lower scores and better EC's, essays, recs, etc. Just go look at the SCEA thread for 2010</p>
