Take tests early for the best outcomes

If you choose to submit scores to Madonna, plan for your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and the fall of senior year for retakes and possible superscore gains. Since the December 1 date is a financial aid priority deadline, do not use it to plan testing unless another college or scholarship specifically requires scores.
