If you choose to submit scores to Butler CC, take your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year so you can use the summer before senior year and fall of senior year for retakes and possible superscoring. Because Butler CC is test-optional and does not list an early admission deadline, plan for your last fall retake to be the one that will return scores before your application deadline.
