If you choose to submit SAT or ACT scores to test-optional Montgomery CC, aim for your first test by spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and fall of senior year for retakes that could improve a superscore. Since no SAT/ACT requirement is tied to the July 1 financial aid priority deadline, do not use that date to set your testing plan.
