If you choose to submit scores to test-optional Mayland, take your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year and use the summer before senior year plus a fall retake to improve your superscore. Since Mayland does not offer Early Decision or Early Action, confirm the Regular Decision deadline and make your last fall retake early enough for scores to arrive by then.
