<p>I know there might have been a post on this before, but I'd still like to ask my qustion anyway.</p>

<p>Which colleges superscore?</p>

<p>Do any of the ivies, U of Chicago, Northwestern, Stanford, etc. superscore?</p>

2

<p>Most colleges do not superscore the ACT, quite a few superscore the SAT. WashU superscore the ACT; thats all I know on top of my head</p>

3

<p>i emailed abunch of colleges and asked if they look at highest subscores (which is kind of like super scoring)
most said yes</p>

<p>i.e. nyu, u chicago, wash u, brown, northwestern</p>

4

<p>Is superscoring taking the highest score from each section and putting it into one "composite" score?</p>

5

<p>Yip that's superscoring.</p>

<p>sweeeet. Thanks!</p>

<p>I have a 34 33 26 28 from eighth grade, and I'm taking it again in February (I'm a junior), so superscoring will help, because I'll definitely do better on the math section.</p>

<p>super scoring is like
they look at ur highest subsections
its not necessarily that they give you an entirely new composite.
if that makes sense</p>

8

<p>your 8th grade scores don't count because you didn't take them in high school.
(thats how it works for SAT at least, somebody correct me if im wrong)</p>

9

<p>I called and asked UChicago.
They look at the "highest" composite score.
They said they "don't" superscore ACT.</p>

<p>Dear Dietcoke (real name here),</p>

<p>We take the highest scores from each section.</p>
