Sending the ACT or SAT or both?

<p>If you took both tests and you reported both scores on the UC application, is there a need to send both the SAT and ACT score reports? I have to send the SAT score report regardless to all my 4 UC schools since it has the required SAT II scores, but should I bother sending in the ACT score too (its a 29) when my SAT is a 1940? Isn’t there an advantage with percentiles?</p>

<p>They do this to your act score for UCs that are on the point system (basically, UCs other than Berk and LA):
[(math+read+science) x (2/3) ] + Combined E/W = SAT score</p>

<p>Percentiles does not matter, they will just see it as so and so amount of points. If I were you, I would send the ACT score report anyway, they will use the score that will benefit you more.</p>

<p>that formula sorta doesn't work</p>

<p>oh my apologies, i did not include the link for conversion. <a href="http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/undergrad_adm/paths_to_adm/freshman/scholarship_reqs.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/undergrad_adm/paths_to_adm/freshman/scholarship_reqs.html&lt;/a> on the bottom is where you can find it.</p>

<p>if it gives you a better shot, i'd say go for it. i spent in both simply because my ACT scores, using the conversion chart thing, was significantly higher than my SAT (33 vs 2090)</p>
