If you choose to submit scores to test-optional NUHS, aim to take your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year so summer can be used for a retake. Because NUHS's Regular Decision deadline is August 1, fall senior-year retakes will not arrive in time for that deadline and should be reserved for other test-using colleges.
