Cancelling scores

Test Preparation SAT Subject Test Preparation

<p>Hey guys, quick question.</p>

<li><p>If we want to cancel scores (but originally weren’t planning to), how do we do it? I just went to CollegeBoard’s website and they said to fill out some form immediately afterwards requesting a score cancellation and to give it to your test supervisor. Apparently I did not know this procedure until five minutes ago. Is it too late to cancel? What other ways can I do so?</p></li>
<li><p>If we decide to cancel, what will the colleges see? I know that, obviously when you cancel, the scores aren’t sent to your designated colleges - but do colleges see that you TOOK the test(s) and THEN see a little “cancelled” indication that you cancelled your score after taking the test?</p></li>
</ol>

<p>I was just talking to my friend and he said that YES even if you do cancel, colleges will NOT see your score(s), but they WILL see that you have cancelled so I shouldn’t do it unless I did terribly, terribly bad (500 or lower).</p>

<p>Please verify this for me!</p>

<p>I don't think colleges know that you took it at all.</p>

3

<p>bump - I'd like more input on this</p>

<p>Can someone answer who is 100% completely sure?</p>

4

<p>me too me too</p>

5

<p>I think you haveto fax CB or sent it a letter notifying the cancellation. You have 'til the Wednesday after the test.</p>

6

<p>does it have to be postmarked by Wednesday or does it have to get to them by then...where do we send it to anyway?</p>

7

<p>My proctor didn't mention postmark. I think they have to get it -by- Wednesday. The fax number should be the on the CB website, shouldn't it?</p>

8

<p>colleges won't see that you took it and cancelled...I'm sure of that. I want to cancel too and I know that you have to send a letter of cancelation to collegeboard by wednesday, but I don't know what address.</p>

9

<p>you can fax...personally i prefer faxing because that way i can have more days to decide whether i really want to cancel.</p>

10

<p>is there a specific form of that or how do i write a cencelation...?</p>

11

<p>same question here</p>

<p>looks like you are on the same boat with me here....</p>

13

<p>you just write it but will it go there by wednesday if you mail it?</p>

14

<p>you have to send it OVERNIGHT to CB. That's the only way to gaurantee its arrival before Wed.
Or fax it, like i've done in my previous SAT.</p>
