Since Midd doesn't require SAT II's should I omit them in commonapp?

<p>I know they're going to get them with my SAT I score report from collegeboard... but I really hate the SAT II scores. Can I just omit them from the commonapp to Midd, because they aren't required?</p>

<p>I have been told by admissions people at other schools that all you have to put on your application for a school are the scores on which you are relying. For example, if they ask for two SAT IIs and you have four, in the test section of the common app, you can put down only the two with the highest scores or with the subject distribution you like best. If you request an SAT score report, the colleges will see all your SAT scores (I and II) for tests you took before the score request, but you don't have to emphasize them by putting ones you aren't relying on on the actual application.</p>

<p>Most colleges say that they "take" or "look only at" the highest of the required scores.
Who knows if they give any weight to other things that they can see from the SAT score reports like that you took a test many times before you got your highest score or that, although you do have two high SAT II reports, you have some really low SAT II scores in other subjects.</p>

<p>collegeboard sends all your SAT scores, whether I or II, so it doesn't matter.</p>

<p>I've worked in the Midd Admissions office...no matter what you submit, they look at what's highest.</p>

<p>Lindy....
i have kind of low standardized test scores.. how much does that hurt my chances of getting into Midd</p>

<p>could hurt a little, but u can make up for that with strong ECs and good grades and recommendations in school</p>

<p>i think my ECs are good but not that spectacular... do u think my EC listed below will in any way impress the admission committee</p>
