If you choose to submit scores to test-optional West Shore, plan to take your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year. Use the summer before senior year and senior fall for retakes, especially if superscoring could improve your result. A November retake should still leave time for scores to arrive before West Shore’s June 1 Regular Decision deadline.
