For students who took the ACT plus its writing exam, the University takes the highest math, reading, science and combined English/writing score from a single sitting and converts them to equivalent SAT scores (see translation table below). To give the ACT writing component equal weight to the SAT writing exam, the University multiplies the sum of the converted math, reading and science scores by two-thirds, then adds the converted English/writing score. This subtotal is then added to the two highest SAT Subject Test scores from two different subject areas to reach the test score total ([math + reading + science] x 0.667 + English/writing + subject test 1 + subject test 2).
