On the ACTs, i got 36 in math and science and a 33 in reading and english with writing for a composite score of 35.

I also got an 800 on SAT subject tests for Math2, Chemistry, and Physics.

First of all, should I send both sat and act scores to colleges? If not, which one should I send?

Also, for several colleges that I’ve been looking at, my math and writing scores are above average, but my reading score is lower than average. Will admission officers reject me solely based on the low score for that one subject?

I haven’t been able to find average scores for the act breakdowns, but my act composite score is above average at the colleges I’m considering.

However, as I’m in the northeast, many schools say that they prefer sat scores but accept both. Does this mean that my perhaps lower sat scores will give me a better chance of acceptance than my act scores?
