<p>I got a 28 on my first ACT (31 English, 27 Math, 28 Reading, 25 Science), and a 29 on my second ACT (34 English, 26 Math, 31 Reading, and 26 Science). If these are superscored, I have a 30 (34 English, 27 Math, 31 Reading, 26 Science). Is it worth it to send both scores to get a 30 superscore? I realize a 30 is low for UChicago, and I have very little chances at being accepted, but should I send both scores to them or stick with the 29? I got a 5 on the writing on my first ACT (I have no idea why, I'm a pretty good writer. It must not have been long enough). UChicago doesn't care about writing, but that might look like a red flag. I took writing on my second ACT though, I'm waiting for that part to be scored. My first ACT is on my transcript, so maybe I might as well send it anyway.</p>
<p>“UChicago requires an ACT or SAT Reasoning score, and we use your best results if you send multiple test scores to us.”</p>
<p>@Ch1764: Investigation – lasting about ten seconds – provided the foregoing information (verbatim quotation) from UofC’s admission’s website (<a href=“https://collegeadmissions.uchicago.edu/apply/applicants/firstyear#test-scores”>https://collegeadmissions.uchicago.edu/apply/applicants/firstyear#test-scores</a>), which appears to answer your question. If you’re going to be a freshman next year, isn’t it reasonable for you to do minimal research before asking others to assist? </p>
<p>If you had read my post, I clearly said “Is it worth it to send both scores to get a 30 superscore?”. That clearly shows I understand their policy. The question is if it’s worth it to send both since I scored lower the original time, but I had one point higher on math, which would give me a higher composite if you combine the both. Please spend the ten seconds yourself reading my post thoroughly.</p>
<p>@Ch1746 . . . and their policy indicates they essentially superscore – by utilizing your best results – regardless of what you do. </p>
