Should I submit my 1500 SAT?

Title pretty much says it lol. I got a 1500 in one sitting and I’m debating submitting it because it’s slightly below Northwestern average and anyone from my school applying rd got in with above a 1500. I was just wondering if it would particularly hurt my app to submit that. Would love to hear your thoughts

I got in ED with a 1500, but I know the RD pool is different so I can’t speak on that. I’m pretty sure it’s above the 50% mark so can’t hurt? Hope this helps:)

Where do you get that it’s “it’s slightly below Northwestern average”?

The mid-point of the Northwestern SAT, on both their CDS and IPEDS, is 1495.

I’d go ahead and submit a 1500.

I’d go ahead and submit it. Since it’s above their average, I doubt it could hurt you.

Since Northwestern is test-optional this year, you may be at a slight advantage by submitting it since they’ll have another data point to look at for you (and it’s an excellent score!).
