ACT/SAT on Resume for IB?

Saw a post asking about act/sat scores and where they ended up job wise after college, I saw a lot of posts saying it was helpful putting that score on their resume. I am planning on recruiting for full time positions this summer , should I add my test score to my resume or am I too old because I’ll be recruiting as a SA Junior, going into my senior year , when I took my ACT my junior year high school

You don’t need to, unless its really high and you wanna show off. Does play a minor role in differentiating from rest for PE recruiting tho.

 

Is there any possibility that I add it to my resume, and the person looking at my resume will think it’s strange I added test scores ? If it’s high score but it was in high school

 

I would definitely show it.

Certain Universities are targeted not only because of academic rigor, but because a students ability to get in says something about their intelligent.

To get into those schools, they use standardized testing as a proxy for intelligence.

Showing you have a 35 should shut down any questions of your intelligence when comparing with a target school student for the most part

 

Thoughts on what to do with a 1460 (760 math) at a non-target?

It's a solid score but not sure if including it will come off as somewhat pretentious trying to flex a score that isn't really outstanding
