Stanford sat and act policy?

<p>For the SAT, we will focus on the highest individual Writing, highest Math, and highest Critical Reading score we receive from across test sittings.
For the ACT, we will focus on the highest Composite score, as well as the highest Combined English/Writing score. If a student takes the ACT more than once, we will mix and match to focus on the highest Composite score and the highest Combined English/Writing Score. We will also be sensitive to individual sub-scores.</p>

<p>This is what was said on the admissions site.. Does this mean they don't care about ACT Math/Science..??</p>

<p>And I heard Stanford doesn't accept score choice policy..</p>

<p>So does that mean that if I take SAT three times and get 800 on reading the first one, 800 on math second, and 800 on writing on last one, they would consider my score to be 2400?? (Not saying I'm going to try that way,, but) </p>

<p>What does it mean by "mix and match to focus on the highest Composite score and the highest Combined English/Writing Score?" Is it saying they are going to pull out only the best scores from the tests I've taken?? SO~ CONFUSING ~ HELP~</p>

<p>Not sure about the ACT, but when I visited the admissions officer told us your top sections would be combined to determine your SAT score. So, like you said, getting 800 math, reading and writing in three separate sittings WOULD be considered a 2400.</p>

<p>“If a student takes the ACT more than once, we will mix and match to focus on the highest Composite score and the highest Combined English/Writing Score. We will also be sensitive to individual sub-scores.”</p>

<p>What do they mean by “mix at match”? Does that mean highest composite and highest Eng/Writing Combined? Cause Im pretty sure they dont superscore the ACT</p>

<p>I have no idea,;; That’s what it said on Stanford Website… That’s why I’m asking this…</p>

<p>The English/Writing score is a combined score from your MC section and writing portion of the ACT. They will mix and match your highest composite score (from math, science, reading, english) and your highest english/writing score from any sittings you took.Its the same as superscoring the SAT except ACT style I suppose.</p>
