<p>I'm not the best Standardized Test taker by any means. My SAT superscore is 2080 (700/650/730) which I know isn't quite Columbia material. However, lately I've been doing some ACT practice and I'm scoring a hell of a lot better on the ACT. My practice scores are always 32-34...</p>
<p>Now, to beg the question. If I stupidly already reported my scores to Columbia, but I also report a 32-34 ACT, will the low SAT score still adversely affect me in admissions?</p>
<p>They say it won't....but I wouldn't be so sure.</p>
<p>no it won't. they'll just convert your ACT to an SAT score, and take which ever one is higher.</p>
<p>Well, I guess it's safe to assume that a 2080 alone is a lot worse than a 2080 and a 34.</p>
<p>Not really. They'll look at it but they will take the highest score. Of course, it helps you to get a higher score anyways because some scholarships and such only take the SAT.</p>
<p>Alright, here is the predicament...</p>
<p>I've sent my SAT scores to Columbia College - not SEAS. So, theoretically, if I send a 34 ACT to SEAS and no SAT scores, they'll only have access to the ACT, right? Would I even have to list my SAT scores in my application?</p>
<p>haha well...hate to burst your bubble, but i'm pretty sure they need 2 SAT II's so they see your SAT. i made a very similar thread recently in the college admissions forum, so you should check it out and see what everyone said regarding this situation.</p>
<p>You can't send SATII independently of SATI?</p>
<p>Jesus, College Board is a piece of crap.</p>
<p>It's one adcomm. Although you're "sending scores to different schools" might cause some confusion for the office workers that sort the files, the adcomm, most likely, would see both scores.</p>
