Another Common App Question...Help Please

<p>Is it mandatory that I self report my standardized test scores on the common app if they are being sent from the testing agency? There is obviously a spot for them but there is no yellow dot next to it saying it is a required field.</p>

<p>Thanks, I really appreciate it</p>

<p>No...but why wouldn't you?</p>

<p>im applying to a few schools that dont require them and they are my top choices. My SATs are decent but not good enough for those schools (Bowdoin, Bates) If I submit the commona app with my scores then I cant changh it so my scores will be sent everywhere whereas if i leave it blank schools that i want to send my scores will still get them from the testing agency but not from the commmon app.</p>

<p>is my application viewed any different if i dont self report my scores?</p>
