Test Scores Questions

Applying to College
1

<p>I completed all of my applications and sent out my recs/transcript. My best test score was a 29 on the ACT no writing. The problem is that three of my schools require ACT writing or SAT, and my scores on both of those were low. I've sent emails out, and two schools will still consider the ACT non-writing scores. So in your opinion, what should I do?</p>

<p>Option 1: Send SAT(1610) & ACT(29 - No Writing)
Option 2: Send ACT(22 - Writing) & ACT(29 - No Writing)</p>

<p>I feel like sending them my two ACT scores will show how much I've improved (that's the theme of my application and my essay), but if I send them the SAT and ACT scores they won't like the low SAT scores. </p>

<p>*If it matters, I want to go into Computer Science. On the SAT I got a 590 on Math and on the ACT Writing a 19 on Math and on the ACT No Writing a 27 on Math. My writing score was a 10 for ACT and SAT.</p>

<p>I really appreciate any answers.. Thanks!!!</p>

<p>You can do different things for different schools based on whether each school will consider your 29 ACT. </p>

<p>Schools will not infer anything from your 7 point gain on the ACT, so don’t send both of those tests with that goal in mind. For all they know, you were ill or stayed up at a party all night before the lower test result.</p>
