Which ACT scores should I send to colleges?

<p>Some of my schools say they'll superstore, but I'm afraid sending 4 test dates may seem like 1 too many. I could send 3 test dates instead of sending 4 test dates, but that wouldn't showcase the 36 I got in English. However, the superstore would be the same because a 31 and a 31.25 are both regarded as a 31.</p>

<p>Should I send the 3 dates and not like an obsessive test taker or send the 4? With 4 dates, it shows the 36 I got on English, but I did get a 35 on a different day so I don't even know if that's much a difference.</p>

<p>Test Date 1
Comp: 30
R: 33</p>

<p>Test Date 2:
Comp: 29
S: 27
W: 10</p>

<p>Test Date 3:
M: 29</p>

<p>Test Date 4:
E: 36</p>

<p>And then I took the ACT two other times, but didn't get any of my highest subscores on those so I'm not even going to send them except for the schools that want all my scores.</p>

<p>Thanks for your help!</p>

<p>Also, I'm so annoyed @ the Common App for asking how many times I took the ACT if I want to self report!! Will it look bad if I don't self report and just send the scores I want through the ACT website? That's what I'm leaning towards.</p>

<p>Can you please list all composite scores and scores for each section? Easier to make a decision that way.</p>

<p>Yes, it’s ok to not self report.</p>

<p>Surely! << >> means highest subscore.</p>

<p>Test Date 1:
E: 34, M: 27, <<r: 33="">>, S: 25, W:8</r:></p>

<p>Test Date 2:
E: 33, M: 28, R: 28, <<s: 27="">>, <<w: 10="">></w:></s:></p>

<p>Test Date 3: E: 35, <<m: 29="">>, R: 31, S: 24, no writing</m:></p>

<p>Test Date 4: E: <<36>>, M: 26, R: 28, S: 25, <<w: 10="">></w:></p>

<p>Usually schools require the ACT to be taken with writing so I would say don’t submit the third one</p>

5

<p>True but it could help my superscore</p>

6

<p>No what he’s saying is the college won’t accept that third one</p>

7

<p>What? That was a state standardized test! Are you kidding me–they won’t even look at this for a superscore? :-(</p>

8

<p>29 isn’t very different from a 28</p>

<p>i’m talking about english subscores… 36 vs 35.</p>
