Take tests early for the best outcomes

Because Post is test-optional, follow this timeline only if you plan to submit scores: take your first SAT or ACT by spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and fall of senior year for retakes and possible superscoring. Since Post does not offer Early Decision or Early Action, align your final fall retake with its Regular Decision deadline once posted so scores arrive in time.
