<p>I've seen several people say "I sucked on the math sections, I'm gonna cancel my score.", and my question is: why would you do that? What is there to lose by seeing what you got? Isn't it true that you can send whatever score to colleges and they'll never know how many times you took it, or am I mistaken? Thanks.</p>
<p>Some colleges require that you send all the scores you’ve ever gotten.</p>
<p>In that regard, wouldn’t it be wise to just take every sat offered and cancel your score for those you think you did badly on?</p>
<p>And here I’ve been waiting for the perfect opportunity to take the SAT… I SHOULD HAVE TAKEN EVERY ONE OFFERED.</p>
<p>I have always thought about that. I mean, technically you can take every SAT offered, and just keep the one that you felt you did well on (by checking answers on college conf etc.).</p>
<p>I suppose, but what are the chances that your performance will differ so significantly between, say, November and December, barring some extenuating circumstance? The only way I can think of is if you did extra prep in between, in which case it would make more sense to just do it in December after prepping. </p>
<p>And that’s not even to mention the wasted registration fees… You don’t get the money back when you cancel.</p>
<p>You can only cancel your scores up to a certain date, and it’s always before your scores come out, so you won’t be able to see the exact score you got. So taking every single SAT would not be a good choice, because you would have doubts about cancelling since you wouldn’t be able to know exactly how well you did</p>
