<p>does anybody know what the average ACT score is for Princeton? I've looked several places, and cannot find it.</p>
<p>i would like to know that too :)</p>
<p>I'm not sure if Princeton accepted ACT scores previous to this year, or they may have been negligent to post any percentages as the College Board is located in Princeton and will look to advocate the SAT. But I do know that Princeton is accepting ACT scores this year, which is the only answer that I need to know.</p>
<p>Princeton says they will take the ACT along with an SAT score...and apply the chart breakdown...I dont know the address...Try a google search for ACT to SAT conversion table...Generally a 32 = 1400 and a 36 = 1600 you can extrapolate from there. I don't think it could hurt you to send it along with an SAT.</p>
<p>They will take the ACT by itself only if ALL of your other colleges require the ACT (extremely unlikely) unless of course you live in the epitome of midwest.</p>
<p>Hope that helps...</p>
<p>I would say the average ACT score is about 33-34 based on the average SAT scores and a backward application of the conversion table.</p>
<p>From my impression while visiting...An ACT by itself is :( But they would'nt admit. They said "both are equally acceptable as long as the ACT is required by your other colleges."</p>
<p>What if you just take the ACT with three subject tests and apply to schools that prefer the SAT? Won't they still take it?</p>
<p>i am applying with a 32</p>
<p>I hope that would be good enough.</p>
<p>IMO SAT/ACT probabbly won't be as important this year as there is so much confusion.</p>
<p>
I would like to know the answer to that, too. I'm taking the ACT in October, and have already taken three subject tests. None of my other college choices require the ACT. And I don't live in the midwest either. I'm really, really confused. You guys think it would be alright, or should I apply early elsewhere, take the SAT, and apply regular to Princeton?</p>
<p>I suggest you call the admission's office. On the one hand, if you really want to go to Prineton and apply elsewhere ED and are accepted, you will not be able to apply to Princeton RD. On the other hand, there is little point in applying early if Princeton will not accept the ACT under your circumstances.</p>
<p>PDaddy, thanks for your suggestion! I emailed Princeton and here's their response:</p>

Thank you for your interest in Princeton! If you do not have SAT I scores in time for early decision, we will accept the ACT. Therefore, your application will still be considered.

Hope this helps anyone else.</p>
<p>Yes! That was what I was wondering, I'm signed up for the ACT and SAT II's, because that's what my original college prefered, but now that I've changed to Princeton I don't have time to take the SAT I...</p>
<p>i currently have a 33 on the ACT but my superscore is a 34. i noticed that Princeton doesn’t superscore, is it worth it to send multiple score reports? every single subsection went up for my last section except my science one dropped. i got a 36 the first two times I took the ACT and this last time i got a 31 which is certainly an anomaly. should i send all 3 to show that the 31 was the anomaly out of 3?
also, I have done high school research which i won an award for and I’m an Eagle Scout. anybody have any ideas on my chances of getting in?</p>
<p>Like anyone else, you have a chance of getting; this also means, like anyone else, your chances are low.</p>
<p>^^lol eagle scout…</p>
<p>I applied to Princeton a couple weeks ago with an ACT plus subject tests and it was no problem :)</p>
