If you choose to submit scores to Montgomery College, plan to 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. Montgomery College does not list an ED, EA, or Regular Decision deadline, and its March 1 financial aid priority date and listed scholarships do not require SAT or ACT scores, so there is not a school-specific last fall retake to target.
