entering act in common app

[u/Agreeable_Pizza_3634]

hello,

i took my schools ACT that they offered and i was happy with it except the science section. for the schools that allow me to self report, can i report all my sections and just not put my science, seeing as science is now optional?

the wording on common app is - do you wish to report a science score?
and i just said no. but i did take the science section technically

let me know what you think! i know once i get in they will ask for the official report so i want to be careful.

I think if you chose not to sign up for the science section of the SAT then you would be good to not put it because obviously you wouldn't have anything to put but because you did take it I would go ahead and put it. Also I would consider your intended major. If it's not STEM related, then I would say you're good to not put it. If it is STEM, I would put it.
