<p>I'll be taking the test this Saturday, but I'm almost certain that I won't be achieving my desired score. As I need to take subject tests in November, will I be able to take the December SAT, and be able to send them in on time for UC application process? </p>
<p>If so, are there any negatives associated with being later than usual?</p>

<p>So from what I’m reading, it should be no different than taking it in november and submitting it then. Any non-apparent negatives i should know about?</p>
<p>bump bump bump</p>
<p>So I’m assuming no negatives? A confirmation would be great.</p>
<p>The process that occurs before mid-Jan is to assure required materials are in, rendering a file complete for review, and setting up the files to be provided to each UC for review. The only admission/rejection decison that is made before mid-Jan is determining whether you qualify for admission to a UC (not any particular UC) by meeting the minimum requirements for admission (meeting a-g course requirements, being top 9% on a local basis, top 9% on a state-wide basis, or whether you can otherwise qualify via test scores alone). You are not disadvantaged in that process by submititng the December test which will usually arrive before mid-Jan.</p>
