Take tests early for the best outcomes

If you choose to submit scores to test-optional Leeward, take your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year and reserve the summer before senior year for retakes that could improve a superscore. Because Leeward’s Regular Decision deadline is August 1, fall senior-year retakes are likely too late for this application.
