I got a 36 on my ACT… with a 25 essay. I also got a 1530 on the new SAT with an 8/8/8 essay. Should I send my SAT as well to compensate for my low ACT writing score or should I just send the ACT?
I don’t think the 25 Writing score from that ACT will hurt you.
I would just send the ACT.
Thank you @Dolemite @twicearound ! If I have some free SAT score reports, should I just send the scores for that anyway?
Yes, I’ll modify my original response. Since it is free, in the 99th percentile, and you are more confident of your writing score on the SAT, send both. While it doesn’t get better than perfect, it also doesn’t get better than having two extremely high scores across the tests. Congratulations and job well done!
Send both. It shows that Unis that you have excelled on both formats.
