Hi
My counselor says all my ACT scores will be reported on my transcript (2 dates). However I don’t want this as my second score is a lot better and I’m planning on only reporting that score to colleges.
Counselor says he can take both scores off or keep both on, not a mix. It’s perfectly fine to just ask him to remove my ACT scores from the transcript right? I’m still self reporting my ideal score and sending in a report, if necessary.
Is there a disadvantage?
Most colleges look at your highest score anyway, and only a few ask for ALL scores. I’ll guess it won’t make a difference.
No
Colleges will either use that test with highest composite or superscore the tests by using the highest scores from the combined tests, so sending both should not be a disadvantage. Removing them from the transcript would also not be a disadvantage, except it could be financially – many colleges accept scores on transcripts as official scores and you need not submit (and pay for) scores from the testing agency.
