If you choose to submit scores to test-optional WMCC, take your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and the fall for retakes that could improve a superscore. Since WMCC does not offer Early Decision or Early Action, use its Regular Decision timeline as your score-arrival target instead of the May 1 financial aid priority deadline.
