Question dying to have answered

<p>I have a 640 on my sat math. However, I have a 32 on the act math. Will colleges consider this?</p>

<p>yes, they will take the better one.</p>

<p>Yes. Most schools were accept the ACT as well as the SAT. </p>

<p>Go to the websites of the schools you are interested in and check out their policies regarding standardized test scores.</p>

<p>Congratulations A 32 is a great score, just send that if the school accepts it in place of SAT II</p>

<p>They will consider either SAT or ACT overall, but will not mix SAT and ACT sections. So, if you did really well on the verbal on SATs and didn't do well on the other ACT sections, you may still want to use SATs. What were your scores in the other sections?</p>

<p>Just looked at your scores- 29 ACT and 1330 SATs- you would be better off using SATs. No, the 32 math will not help you.</p>

<p>for sat: reading=690 writing=690 math=640
for act: reading=29 math=32 english=28 science=26</p>

<p>My reading and writing sat are better than my act, but my act math is better than sat math. Will the college admission people even consider the fact that "o, this applicant scored low in the sat mat, but high in the act math. and considering that she he has already taken ap calc (which I have), the sat math score is irrelevant"???</p>

<p>why wouldn't they?</p>

<p>i don't know, i'm assuming that they would, but some people are saying that they exculsivley look at only one test, and that they don't intermix the scores, even for just consideration</p>

<p>well that is a different situation. I don't think that colleges will mix and match scores from the sat and act. The fact that you took AP calc is irrelevent because number 1: the sat and act are IQ tests of sorts and are not comparable to a subject such as calculus or chemistry, and number 2: A good percentage of high school seniors take AP calc. However, they will take the scores that show you in the best light.</p>

<p>The ACT is looked at as a whole exam, most schools will not look at the They will consider your over all 29 score as there is no mixing and matching of scores like the SAT</p>

<p>Regarding the SAT: some schools use your highest score based on multiple sittings whike others only look at your best combined score from a single sitting.</p>
