Im applying to CALS, where they’re optional. I want to send Math II because I got an 800, but Bio M i only have 730 and i’m applying to a life sciences field. should i send?
also, why does cornell say they want you to send EVERY act?
Sending a 730 and an 800 is fine.
Well, according to Cornell:

Although the cynics may think they want to see how many attempts it took to get the score and possibly to see if there was overtesting involved. Regardless of Cornell’s reasoning, it is what it is; you need to send all scores.
@skieurope but how will they know if I DON’T send all scores?
There are ways. The HS transcript might list all standardized test scores. A recommendation might reference the scores. The testing agency might “accidentally” send all scores.
My information is few years old. When my youngest was sending in her score, the testing agency knew each school’s policy on test scores, D2 was reminded online to send in all scores for Cornell. Now, I do not remember if D2 had the option of only send in certain scores.
OP - 800 and 730 are very good scores. 730 in Bio is not going to put you out of running at Cornell.
