[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So they know it’s from a single sitting?  How exactly.  That would help my kid, but I wasn’t sure they would be able to tell.  Don’t kids self report and they just ask for highest on each section?[/quote]

All or almost all top colleges on the common app make you type in both math and verbal from all dates you want to self report. They do not let you type just the top verbal score and the date and just the top math score and the date. [/quote]

This is false.  The common app (for schools who superstore) asks for highest math with date taken and highest verbal with date taken.  Schools do not see the other scores until you are accepted and mail in the score reports[/quote]

No, it depends on the college: many top colleges make you enter the the verbal and math of the top two dates if you are superscoring. Others do not. The colleges choose these specific formatting/self reporting options for submitting. Also, many colleges encourage submitting an official score report from CB, which makes you select the test dates you are submitting, so the scores from each test date you select will show. One does not have to submit official CB score report, but the former AO at a top10 who heads the top private in our area strongly encourages everyone to do so, unless cost is a barrier. He tells all parents and students to submit the official report as soon as possible in the application season. [/quote]
