What importance are test scores when you are applying as a transfer student (not as a freshman)?

He probably isn’t applying as a transfer student. He’s a high school senior who is doing Running Start. High school students who are doing RS, DE or similar programs are still “incoming freshman” students. His test scores will likely count.
This is no different than the many students who come into college with 40+ college credits thru IB or AP. They are incoming frosh with upper-classmen status.
In most students’ cases, it’s better to apply as a frosh because FA, merit scholarships, and acceptances are better.
