If you choose to submit scores to Kaskaskia, take your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and fall of senior year for retakes if a higher score or superscore would help. Because Kaskaskia does not offer Early Decision or Early Action, the last useful fall retake is the latest SAT or ACT date whose scores will arrive before the regular application deadline.
