<p>On my most recent SAT (I'm taking it for the last time this saturday) my math section was 750, and my CR was 670. On the ACT I got a 31 on math (I just wasn't prepared for the timing) but a 36 on the CR. My question is, I know that schools don't Super duper score (as I heard some college reps call it) the SAT and ACT equivalents, but will Northwestern look at the 750 and 36 and see a high test score, or will they only look at the two tests separately? I'm hoping that on this SAT I get middle 700-ish for CR, and hopefully bring Writing up from my 650 to 700 or so, which would give me 2200+, which I'd be happy with. I got 33 overall on ACT, but that's 31 math, 31 english, 36 reading, 32 science, and 29 writing, so it's not actually as good as I wish it was.</p>
<p>Actually, some schools do “super duper score.” Pitt comes to mind; there are others.</p>
<p>If you were applying today, I’d say send both and hope for the best, because unless there’s a mole from Admissions here, no one really knows for sure how they’ll view your scores.</p>
<p>Not considering writing, the ACT/SAT concordance indicates your ACT is a little better than your SAT (1460-equivalent vs. 1420). Have you considered practicing a timing strategy and retaking the ACT?</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>I think that my SAT score saturday will be better than anything I could get on the ACT. My SAT score will probably break 2150 at least, plus I can’t use another ACT voucher, because I used it for the last one, and we don’t really have the $50. I’m a legacy (both grandparents on dad’s side) and hispanic, so I think I’ll be fine, but I just wondered if anyone knew anything about stuff like that. I guess I should have said most schools don’t “super duper score” though because I heard it from GA tech touring with my bro, and they did do it also.</p>
<p>Good luck on your Saturday SAT. </p>
<p>My best guess is that even if the school doesn’t super duper score (love the phrase, btw), that the admissions office sees everything that you submit, so, if they’re inclined to admit you but are concerned about the ACT math, seeing the SAT math can give you the push you need to get in.</p>
<p>As it stands assuming he rest of your application is good – I think you have a reasonable shot at admissions (considering you’re a URM + a double legacy) with your current scores – either SAT or ACT, and much better if you get the SAT score you’re hoping for.</p>
