I got a 28 composite on my ACT all 3 times I took it but my superscore was a 30. I know Cornell doesn’t superscore but should I still send all 3 scores?
(Yes I know, my ACT score is horrible but I’m a straight A student in all honors and AP’s and have a great story and a bunch of jobs and extracurricular leadership positions ans my essay was pretty solid so it’s worth a shot).
I believe Cornell requires a full testing history for whichever test(s) you submit… so if you want to send your ACT scores, you’ve got to send them all.
Yes send all scores for ACT it may even work in your advantage
Cornell requires all test scores. If you choose to send ACT, you have to send them all.
I got a 29 three consecutive times. My super score was a 33. I sent all scores. I got in (CALS). Good luck.
If someone sends all SAT and all ACT scores, will they take the highest into consideration? My son sent all because he saw that he was required to send all scores. His ACT (33) was much better than his SAT (1940). His ACT superscored is a 34 and he only took the SAT once though. However, on the “Check Application Status” page, only the SAT scores are shown. There is a checkmark beside the ACT at least though. Will they take his ACT scores into consideration? It bothers me to see the lower score being shown.
@bahiablue admissions officers always say they try to put you in the best light or whatnot, which is (partly) why they superscore the SAT… I’m no admissions officer, but I would say the 33 ACT gets the nod and the lower SAT shouldn’t hurt your son. Based on everything I have read online, once you have a test score within their range, I don’t think they would care too much about other scores.
