Take tests early for the best outcomes

If you choose to submit scores to test-optional Pacific States, take your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year. Use the summer before senior year and a fall test date for retakes and superscoring, with the last fall retake scheduled early enough for scores to arrive before Pacific States’ first application deadline.
