SAT score on 1 test vs. superscored SAT

<p>I was just wondering if colleges like it better if I do well on one test versus someone else doing okay on a couple of tests and then having a good superscore. For example, if I got a 2080 on 1 test and another kid got a 2110, but he superscored it between 3 tests, and we both had the same application, who would the college rather take in?</p>

<p>Depends on the school, but colleges usually look at the highest scores on each section, so the other kids might be better, but that doesn’t exactly mean he’ll get in over you.</p>
