Will Sending SAT Score Negatively Impact Admissions?

<p>You may have seen my thread on a similar situation, but if not, here’s the link:</p>

<p>Stanford requires all tests, so you have no choice there. Your situation is very similar to the one I dealt with, and I finally ended up sending everyone everything, even schools where I could have sent just the ACT and the SAT IIs. I was told by a very high-up admissions official that all the scores were great and that there was no reason to withhold the SAT I, even though the ACT was a bit higher percentile-wise. On the other hand, an admissions rep from another top school had strongly advised me to just send the ACT. But I worried that they would wonder why I hadn’t sent the SAT I, and the most important section in the SAT I, for me, was better percentile-wise than the comparable section of the ACT, even though the ACT composite was better. It may be just six of one, half a dozen of the other, but I feel your pain! It’s a tough call. The good news is that at this level, it may make no difference ultimately–they’ll be looking at other factors.</p>
