<p>I was wondering, how important are SAT, ACT scores at Chicago? I know some schools look at them a lot, others only glance at it as it is just a small section of your whole package.</p>

<p>I have a 670 CR, 700 M, 700 W...
My Sat II scores (are these required???) 760 Math II, 740 Chem, 630 Spanish (...lol...)</p>

<p>I also have taken the SAT multiple times, my score the second time around actually went down...will I be penalized for this? Is Chicago score choice? Will they only take into account the highest scores?</p>

<p>you should read the thread linked below. It’s pretty well researched, and yes, sobering.</p>

<p>UChicago treats them as a smaller section of your total package- we’re much more interested in the total you from your transcript, not the early-Saturday-morning-you from your SATs. They are still considered in admissions, but not a dealbreaker.
And no, SATIIs are not required.</p>
