What will colleges consider if I take the SAT more than once?
What colleges do with SAT, if you have taken it more than once, is they will see all of the student's scores and will take the highest combined score of one sitting. If you score a certain number on one test, you can't pick which test -- the verbal on one, the math on one, the writing on one. A college would take the highest combined SAT score. With the ACT, the ACT does not send out all the scores, but only the score that you choose. They would send out, obviously, the highest score. They're graded entirely different than the SAT.
