<p>So I took the ACT many times and signed up to take it one more time </p>
<p>I always thought I could just send in whatever scores I like, maybe my best 2 scores and I didn't realize until recently that some colleges require you to send all your test scores.</p>
<p>I don't know what to do now because I feel like if I took the ACT 5 times they will view me negatively for spending all my time taking the ACTs....</p>
<p>Is this going to be really bad?</p>
<p>There is NO way that any school can know how many times you took the ACT; each date has to be paid for individually to be sent; it is not even possible to send a score report with all your scores on them. </p>
<p>If you feel guilty, send three of your top composite dates (but remember that each report for each date is $)</p>
<p>But aren’t there school that do not have the “score choice” option?
I’m so confused 
For example, Carnegie Mellon and Columbia require all my score…
even if they require them, I don’t need to send it all???</p>
<p>No one is going to tell you what should be done…that will be your decision in terms of what is right for YOU.</p>
<p>However, what is known is that schools will not know whether you held back a score. College Board and the ACT cannot tell that information to colleges, whether they indicate score choice or not. Only you can release that information based on privacy laws.</p>
<p>However, that brings it back to your own personal ethical decision.</p>
<p>If your college requires you to send in all of your scores, I would follow their directions. Better to be honest now than to risk getting rejected or kicked out because you didn’t meet all of the requirements when you sent in your scores.</p>
<p>Plus, if I were an admissions officer, I wouldn’t look at that many ACTs as a bad thing. If anything, it would mean that you’re dedicated and won’t settle for a low score no matter what.</p>
