<p>Schools say they take both, and there’s no reason not to believe them. These days most kids applying to selective schools take both. Why would it seem more suspicious to see only an ACT than to see only an SAT. And given score choice, why not be suspicious of a second, lower SAT (or ACT for that matter) score out there. I have to assume that schools evaluate what they see and don’t factor in what they don’t see.</p>
