<p>Several of the colleges my S is considering will accept either ACT or SAT scores. Fortunately, he tested well in both. Which would you recommend submitting? Is sending both advisable?</p>
<p>ACT - 34 (Eng 34, Math 33, Rdng 34, Sci 36; W 31)
Sat - 2290 (CR 720, M 790, W 780; Sat IIs UShist 760, MathII 800)</p>
<p>Applying to LACs in WA and OR.</p>
<p>bothhhhhhhhh</p>
<p>Both are great...
I have similar scores (34 act, 2270 sat) and am only submitting the SAT, though, because colleges don't need to see both and it costs extra...</p>
<p>well ur going to want to send your SAT IIs, so your SAT I will automatically be sent. Might as well send both since they're both 99 percentile.</p>
<p>Turns out SAT IIs are not required, so he has the option to send either SATs or ACTs. Nice to save a few bucks if possible...</p>
<p>I tested similarly (34 and 2230), and am sending both. It can't hurt, but the extra $ might... I had a discussion with my dad, and he thought it would be a good idea to send both, and he'd fork over the cash.</p>
<p>If you only want to send one, I'd go with the SAT.</p>
<p>I'd go with the SAT as well since it's more popular.</p>
<p>S has sent both</p>
<p>there's no way you shouldn't send SAT IIs...they may say they don't need it but it can lead to scholarships, making those few bux of sending fee negligible.</p>
<p>While SAT is more popular, the ACT score might help to distinguish you (a great thing) and most ACT/SAT conversion charts have 34 beating out a 2290, but both are great so its your call, good luck</p>
