Superscore vs. Actual Score

Test Preparation
1

<p>So, I took the SATs three times
I got a 2080, 2010, and 2010.
however, my highest reading was a 790, highest writing a 770, and highest math was a 690.
my superscore is a 2250 then!
when applying to colleges, (especially Ivy Leagues) will they actually consider my superscore, or look past it to my regular SAT scores?
thanks! :) I'm nervous to see what counts!</p>

<p>They look at your best score which is 2080.</p>

<p>I think SOME schools superscore, but they are the minority. Most colleges will look at your highest single-sitting score, which is the 2080.</p>

<p>If they use the common app, they superscore</p>

<p>I’m pretty sure most top 20 schools superscore…but they will be able to see your entire testing history…but the admissions people at info sessions say that they will put the most emphasis on your highest score in each section</p>

<p>All the schools I applied to superscore, except for wisconsin. but I only applied to staties</p>

<p>Each school has its own policy. Here is a link to those policies:</p>

<p>It’s safe to say that Ivy League schools super score. Not sure about the rest.</p>
