I thought if you took the ACT/SAT twice, they took the higher of the two scores. If you took it more than that, they took the avergae score...
Different schools handle it differently.

At a minimum, they take your single highest score.

But most schools "Superscore," which means they take your highest sections from ANY test date, add those together to get a score. So if you got a 600/700 on one test, then on another day got a 700/600, your score would be counted as a 1400.

They do that to try to game the U.S. News and other college ranking systems.
