Send ACT score or SAT 1 score?

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>So, I've taken both the ACT (Composite: 35, Science: 35, Math:36, English:35, essay - 10, Reading:33) and SAT (Total: 2250, W: 770 - essay 10, CR: 750, M: 730). I also have 4 SAT subject tests all 780+ which I know that I will definitely report. </p>

<p>After looking at some of the score conversion charts, it appears that a composite 35 on the ACT is approximately a 2340 SAT </p>

<p>So, my question is should I report ONLY my ACT score or should I report both my ACT and SAT score? </p>

<p>PS. Personally, I'm leaning toward reporting only my ACT score because it does appear to convert to be higher than my SAT score. Also, I don't think agree with the concept some people have been espousing to me about colleges preferring the SAT over the ACT.</p>

<p>Although many would disagree with me, I’d send both.</p>

<p>I flat out disagree. Send only your ACT.</p>

<p>There is NO innate bias favoring the SAT over the ACT. Your composite 35 is ~100 points higher when converted to an SAT scale compared to your actual score. Why send close to perfection and a little bit further from perfection when it’s best for you to send your best performance? ACT only.</p>

<p>Send in both. Both are excellent.</p>

<p>Definitely just the ACT. Depends where you’re applying though, they’re both pretty good but the ACT is better.</p>

<p>I agree with NewAccount. Why would you send something that’s lower when you don’t have to?</p>

<p>ACT definitely.</p>
