SAT and ACT scores

Test Preparation
1

<p>Hello,</p>

<p>I took the SAT in June and the ACT in September.</p>

<p>Here are my scores:
SAT CR: 600
SAT English: 750
SAT Math: 720
SAT Essay: 9
SAT Composite: 2070</p>

<p>ACT English: 34
ACT Math: 35
ACT Reading: 28
ACT Science: 29
ACT Essay: 10
ACT Composite: 31</p>

<p>Are the two scores close enough that I should send both of them or should I send just one of them? I'm just looking at QuestBridge finalist standing right now; I will be taking SAT Subjects in October and ACT again in October for the actual College Match; I'm confident I can get 33+ for the ACT; I really lost focus in the loud test center with windows open and I just couldn't focus for reading, so I ran out of time..</p>

<p>I realize these scores are very low for the standards around here, especially since I'm looking at Stanford/MIT/Princeton/Yale (nonbinding QB matches), but I'm going to try anyways. </p>

<p>Please let me know what you think,
Thanks in advance for any help~</p>

<p>I think that an SAT Subject Matter 750 indicates you can raise your SAT CR 600. You look to have a very bright future whereever you end up. Congratulations!</p>

<p>agreed, very impressive</p>

<p>Thank you guys. But can anyone give me any advice on which to send between the two for now? Is there a significant difference enough that I should send one over the other? Or should I just send both?</p>

<p>Send both. However, your SAT CR+M scores indicate you should gotten 32 in ACT.</p>

<p>SAT CR+M (Score Range) <–> ACT Composite Score
1400 - 1430 <–> 32
1360 - 1390 <–> 31</p>

<p>Yes, however, on the 2400 scale, a 31 is around a 2070-2100.</p>

<p>Submit both–both scores show different strengths and weakness; the only thing they can do is compliment each other. Try to improve your ACT math and science, they are easily the easiest subsections to increase.</p>
