What to send

Applying to College
1

<p>Should I send my ACT scores?? I'm going to apply to UVA, UNC, Richmond, Penn State, Penn (Wharton), and possibly Wake Forest and Elon. All of these scores already have my SAT scores.</p>

<p>June 2008 SAT: 700 CR 710 M 780 W
Dec 2007 SAT: 690 CR 710 M 780 W
Oct 2007 SAT: 670 CR 730 M 690 W</p>

<p>June 2008 ACT: 33 Composite, 32 English, 33 Math, 36 Reading, 29 Science, waiting on writing</p>

<p>Sat subject tests: 700 US history, 680 Math II (i'm retaking this in October)</p>

<p>Do you think that it is worth it to pay the extra to send ACT scores (will it help my application more than my SAT scores)?
Also, I got that ACT score cold turkey with no prep. Should I consider studying this summer and retaking in the fall?</p>

<p>ACT is clearly a better test for you. Take practice tests this summer and study; if you could improve to a 34+ that would be excellent. </p>

<p>If you don't have to, I wouldn't send SATs at all. Your SAT II's are below average for top schools, so don't send them if they aren't required.</p>

<p>I disagree. You should certainly submit your SAT scores. I mean, you've taken them 3 times! And your SAT Subject test scores are good. Your ACT scores are basically in the same range as your SAT scores are. They seem to be a bit higher than average. I would send them.</p>
