<p>Alright, so I just got my ACT scores and now I'm debating which to send. I took the SAT three times and the ACT one time.</p>
<p>1st SAT: 670CR, 800M, 650W (2120)
2nd SAT: 630CR, 770M, 700W (2100)
3rd SAT: 650CR, 800M, 800W (2250)</p>
<p>ACT: 35W, 33M, 32R, 31S (33)</p>
<p>Should I just send the ACT and the SAT because the ACT reading score is higher?</p>
<p>I say send both. A 33 and 2250 are both great scores, and I’d imagine that the schools would like to see that you’ve done well on both tests.</p>
<p>You need to send 3rd SAT because of 800M and 800W. Your ACT is better than 670CR</p>
<p>You superscore a 2270, so your SAT is a lot higher than your 33.</p>
<p>The 2250 is obiviously better. Send that score in and DO NOT send in your ACT. A 33 ACT is equal to a little less than 2200 SAT. </p>
<p>I’m a big fan of just sending in your highest scores to colleges. Sending all scores will just make the admission officer look at more items that may give them an excuse to not accept you.</p>
<p>ACT is not concordable to SAT CR + M + W.
ACT is concordable to SAT CR + M.
ACT 33 combined ~ 1460-1510 SAT CR + M, which is about the same or a little lower (1470).
If they want to separate SAT CR from SAT M and take highest section (depends on college), sending both ACT and SAT would be beneficial.
33 ACT would be converted to a better SAT CR than 670</p>
<p>
It can be by comparing the score percentiles: ACT composite to SAT composite.</p>
<p>They are not concordable. If you belong to 99.99% in lift weighting that does not necessarily mean that perfect result is concordable to 99.99% in track and field and you could easily convert one to another by using a table. Those results are not well correlated. The same with ACT composite vs SAT CR + M + W</p>
<p>An example of concordable data - if you win Olympics in running 100m, you have very good chances to win Olympics in running 200m as well, but it is very unlikely you will win Olympics in running Marathon, it is even very unlikely you would be able to run Marathon at all. That is an example of non-concordable data.</p>
<p>Most people score about equally well on the SAT and ACT, so there is a correlation.</p>
<p>Not to mention that the M+CR is .98 correlated to M+CR+W. So therefore, ACT composite is highly correlated to M+CR+W.</p>
<p>Not so highly as ACT composite vs SAT CR + M
ACT w/o writing does not test writing skills enough.</p>
<p>should I send a 33 (with 28 on science) or 2200 with 770 730 700</p>
<p>SAT (1500 CR + M) looks better, but you could send both.</p>
<p>would it help me in anyway if i send the ACT ? i just want to save money lol</p>
<p>10 SAT points could cost you $5K scholarship per year, especially if calculated in a non-traditional way. If you are not 100% sure this particular college would not value your ACT better than SAT, spend $10 per college to send ACT. You need to be absolutely crazy not to send ACT in case the results are close for the purpose of saving $10.</p>
