If you choose to submit scores to test-optional Saint Mary, take your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year and use the summer before senior year and the fall for retakes. Since Saint Mary does not offer Early Decision or Early Action, your last fall retake should be the latest test date that reports before the Regular Decision deadline, giving you more chances to benefit from superscoring.
