<p>I saw this casually mentioned somewhere else, and I thought this was the best place to ask to get the details.</p>
<p>If you are submitting ACTs to a school, are there schools which require SAT IIs also for admission? Is it just a few that may have these requirements, or a common enough set that it is worth thinking about SAT IIs even if one plans to use ACT instead of SAT I?</p>
<p>See: Compass:</a> Admissions Requirements for a list of colleges requiring the SAT IIs. In the required column, an * next to the number required means the college takes ACT in lieu of both SAT and SAT II; no asterisk means you still need to submit IIs even if you submit ACT.</p>
<p>Also, if college is not listed at all, then most likely it does not use IIs in the admission process, although you should always check to make sure as rules change and the chart is updated only once in a while.</p>
<p>thanks for the link drusba! I hadn't heard of this possibility before, will be good to check out the list and see if it could apply to any schools under consideration.</p>
<p>Question: Why do people not take the ACT more often when more than a few schools will take ACT's in lieu of SAT's and SAT II's? John Hopkins, for example, accepts the ACT OR if you submit SAT's it recommends three SAT II tests go along with it.</p>
<p>Question: If you have a solidly high ACT score (like 34) and only mediocre SAT's comparatively besting at 690, would you also submit all your SAT's to the school if they were not required but only "considered"? What about if they were "suggested"? What I hate about the SAT is that if you send one, you send all and I wonder about even if these scores are considered, could that work in a bad way?</p>
