Should I send these SAT's?

<p>I was deferred ED, and I retook the SAT's in DEC. My score are:</p>

<p>CR 740-->750
M 760-->790
W 710-->680 (!!!)</p>

<p>Total 2210-->2220, superscore 2250. Columbia superscores (right?), so should I send my Dec scores or will the 680 in writing look bad enough to counter the 40 point increase? </p>

<p>Or are these scores not gonna make a difference anyway and I should save $10?</p>

<p>Yeah, they superscore-- because on the application you tell the date and the best score received for each section separately.</p>

<p>I think it would only help your application to send it; whether it's worth the $10 is up to you. (I don't know Columbia's particular policy regarding the writing section of the SAT, but I would guess they don't weight it as heavily as the other two sections.)</p>

<p>bump~~~~~~~~</p>

6

<p>when do the first two trimesters end?</p>

7

<p>march 6th ~~~~~</p>

<p>I don't think they look at writing much, so I would send them, it can't hurt.</p>

9

<p>a good portion of decisions have largely been made by march 6th, so by the time things could get mailed there it probably wouldn't matter.</p>

<p>I would send your first trimester's report and attach a note with the mailing that because of your school's trimester system, you won't be submitting any further grades.</p>
