Accidentally Sent in ALL of my Scores

<p>Last night, I accidentally sent all three of my SAT scores to ALL of my schools. I wanted to send in my third one because it was the highest of them all. I was in tears last night and this morning :(</p>

<p>Will colleges disregard my lower scores or will they reject me because I had lower scores the first two times?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Which schools?</p>

<p>What were your scores?
Maybe your get lucky and if theres a pretty big gap they will look at the upward trend at a good thing. I mean its pretty obvious most student take SAT’s more then once. It will probably stand out but I’m sure they wont hold it against you and base you just on your lowest score.
Good luck and cheer up :slight_smile: promise its not complete end of the world! If your scores were decent you should get into an awesome college regardless </p>

<p>If these schools superscore it shouldn’t matter and like Msdeterminded said, an upward trend looks good.</p>

<p>oh dont worry. they, as a rule, always take the highest marks.</p>

<p>first it was 1640, then 1740, and my last score was 1850</p>

<p>I’m not going for Ivy-League, but most of the colleges I’m applying to is kinda hard to get in to. That’s why I’m flipping out!</p>

<p>Is there any way you can call the collegeboard, and tell them to cancel this? Tell them it was mistake. I’m new to this, so I don’t know much. But you should definitely call in and tell them to cancel that. </p>

<p>If your schools take the highest SAT score, then it shouldn’t matter.</p>

<p>no, once you send the scores in, the email CollegeBoard sends to you says you can’t cancel the scores</p>

<p>Check if all the schools superscore; that means they only look at/count your highest scores in each section.</p>

<p>yeah 8/9 of my schools superscore</p>

<p>Don’t worry then.
What is the 9th one’s policy?</p>

<p>you should call college board. I believe you could make change if they have not sent out your scores. I added one score while my request was pending. The person I talked to was very nice.</p>

<p>Colleges fall into two groups when you send multiple test scores: (a) those that superscore (most private universities) in that they use the highest section scores from the multiple tests to determine admission; (b) those that use that test with the highest composite score (most public univeresities). All assert that they do not hold the lower scores against you. Thus, even if you cannot make a change, you should be fine.</p>

<p>Also, understand that not having College Board send the scores does not mean the scores will actually be concealed from the colleges: you need to check with your high school and find out if it puts all your scores on your official high school transcript that it sends to colleges; majority of high schools do; thus you may be attempting to engage in a useless exercise by having CB not send them.</p>

<p>Score Choice is useless anyway, because colleges know that most applicants take the SAT more than once. They explicitly state that they will consider only the highest score.
So don’t worry.</p>
