I know this may sound dumb, but recently I've been told that the PAT score doesn't affect your AA score. It's looked at separately. I didn't believe it, but when I tried googling if this is true I couldn't find anything that supports/denies this statement. Can anyone tell me if they know?
 
Academic Average (AA) is OC, BIO, GC, QR, RC.

Total Science (TS) is OC, BIO, GC.

PAT is a solo and completely separate score.

Taken straight from my score sheet:
"The Academic Average is the average of five scores rounded to the nearest whole number: Quantitative Reasoning, Reading Comprehension, Biology, General Chemistry, and Organic Chemistry.

The Total Science score is a standard score based on all 100 questions in the Biology, General Chemistry, and Organic Chemistry tests. It is not the average of the three science standard scores."
