[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid got a 36 superscore…
Took it 3x[/quote]

He had to report highest composite in a single sitting. Not the superscore on common app.[/quote]

You can report superscore to individual schools[/quote]

UVA does not allow it.

Most specify reporting total composite in ONE sitting and then you can report highest individual score for each section with date under that. This is how it is reported on the common app.[/quote]

The schools have the option to choose what information they want to pull from the common app. So the schools that consider ACT superscore will specifically pull the highest section scores and then the school will calculate the superscore. [/quote]

+2 The schools don’t download 100% of the common app as you see it. When individual schools download your DC’s application they only download what they want to see or consider and create their application file. For example, if they aren’t interested in where mom and dad or siblings went to college, they don’t download that information. If they superscore, they set it up to just download the section scores and then calculate the composite superscore. [/quote]
