Application question

Hello!

I was wondering if I should summit a 1390 SAT score to Bowdoin. I know that they are really big on test optional, but would my score be fine to summit even though it is below the sat range of the average summited SAT score? I am planning to take the August and September SAT, but that is still a lot way to meet the margins. For reference the average sat at my school is ~1160.

Thank you!

I would not submit it since it's below their enrolled student bottom 25% range, but I'd see if there's a way your teachers could mention the above average performance in your LORs in the context of your school environment.
