Questions about Standardized Tests (ACT/SAT, etc)

Applying to College Common and Coalition Application

<p>On the Common App, it asks you to self-report your scores. Is this absolutely necessary? I have seen some people on CC say that you should report all your tests while others claim that submitting only the highest score is also fine.</p>

<p>Also, let's say I take the SAT twice and score higher the second time around. Will schools consider the new score if I send it? Would it be sufficient to just have the testing agency send the score report or should I also call the college and notify in advance?</p>

<p>Finally, does it matter whether you submit scores to a college without having a submitted an application there first?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>They want you to list all the SATs you took. Do not superscore; it wants you to list them in their complement.</p>

<p>You should use CollegeBoard to have your SATs scores sent to the colleges you are applying to.</p>

<p>What if you have taken the SAT I, SAT II, and ACT multiple times each. </p>

<p>Can you not report any of the SAT I scores and just report the ACT/SAT IIs(all of these)?
In the end I plan to not send any of the SAT scores either, and I will later have them removed from my transcript by my GC.</p>
