Which SAT and/or ACT to submit?

<p>Would love opinion on SAT and/or ACT to submit to Tulane:</p>

<p>Superscore SAT = 640CR, 600M, 800W</p>

<p>ACT Composite = 29 (can't remember subscores exactly, but I think English 34, Reading 32, Math 25 and Science 25)</p>

<p>The 800W is great, but I'm not sure Tulane looks at SAT writing - I know a lot of schools don't.</p>

<p>I believe the ACT score of 29 is greater than SAT CR+M comparatively.</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>I would submit ACT, however the 800W is nice. Good Job.</p>

<p>Tulane does look at writing, or else it would never ask for 1870 as a minimum on the SAT (or 28 composite on the ACT) for in-staters applying EA (single-choice or not) that come with a minimum of 3.5 UW to guarantee them admission. So I’d send both, personally.</p>

<p>I would also recommend sending both. Tulane does consider the writing portion, so you have a rather odd situation because of your asymmetrical subscore distribution. Your total of 2040 is considered to be a 30 on the ACT, so there the SAT is to your advantage. But a 1240 CR+M is either the highest end of a 27 or the lowest of a 28, so there your ACT wins. So send both and let Tulane decide how they want to parse it out. Schools tend to look at these things in the most favorable way to the student.</p>

<p>Thank you! I will send them both. Great advice.</p>

<p>Does Tulane superscore your SAT scores? For example, if you have taken the SAT multiple times, do they take the highest Math, Writing and Critical Reading from all the different sittings and add them up to come up with a super score? Thanks!</p>

<p>Yes, I believe every time an admissions counselor has been asked this at one of the local sessions, they respond that they do superscore.</p>
