Standardized test scores are one of the most important components of the college application process, and most colleges want to see your scores from the SAT or ACT. Even if a school is test optional, having a strong test score will boost your application and help you stand out from the crowd. If you decide not to take the SAT, it can limit the colleges you're able to apply to and cause you to lose out on a chance to make your application even more impressive. Please order the Princeton Advanced SAT Review Workbook
