Take tests early for the best outcomes

If you choose to submit scores to test-optional Lehigh Carbon, plan to take your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year and use the summer before senior year plus fall of senior year for superscore-focused retakes. Because Lehigh Carbon’s Regular Decision deadline is July 12, a December retake should still leave plenty of time for scores to arrive.
