SAT score?

I’m planning on going to ECU (a nice but not extremely hard to get into sort of school) and I was wondering if colleges in general look at SAT scores separately?

The first time I took the SAT my sophomore year, I made a 1760 or else a 1240 on the old one. The second time I took the SAT I raised in my writing score by 50 pts but lowered on my math and especially reading score. Do they only take the highest score you received?

All of the colleges I applied to (in the northeastern part of the US) took your highest in each section, as long as you didn’t take the test more than three times.

Most schools consider the highest score of each section separately, regardless of when you took it. When you send them an official score report, they will receive all of the grades and pick out the highest three grades and add them together for a total score.

ask the school at your visit or look online…most schools take the highest in each section, but some take the highest at one test (i only ran into one school that did that, Penn State)

for you to have a same score you must also improve and don’t forget the other subject you must focus one but you must never leave the other one to improve and get a higher score in all as what you have mentioned.
