Confusion about SAT Reporting.

<p>Hey,</p>

<p>I am class of 2010 and i now know that i can pick and choose to send my best test scores. However, a few schools i am applying to require two subject tests and a few require three. If i did take three but lets say i did bad on one of them... could i choose to leave out that one for the colleges that require two. I ask this because I have to send the third bad one to certain colleges. Does that mean, if i send something to one college, it is going to go to another. Or will i be able to personalize and decide which scores i send for EACH college?</p>

<p>In other simpler words when i choose which SAT reasoning test to send and the subject test to send, is it done by college or does it automatically go to all desired colleges. Thanks</p>

<p>I think it all has to do with test dates.</p>

<p>Let's say you took your 1 bad SAT subject test in October and 2 good SAT subject tests in November. You could opt to only send scores from the November seating. But if you took all 3 SAT subject tests in October, you can't pick and choose which scores you send.</p>

<p>Keep in mind this is my understanding, I'm also class of '10 so I haven't gone through the process and I may be wrong.</p>

<p>When you have SAT scores sent to a school the College Board sends scores from ALL SAT tests (including subject) taken while you were in high school. You do get to specify which scores the individual schools considers, at least in theory. The ACT, on the other hand, sends only the scores from the specified date.</p>

<p>^There are new rules for the class of 2010. I don't know exactly how it works, but students now have some choice in which scores colleges can see.</p>

<p>The new rules start in Feb 2009. The details are at the SAT website

Students will be able to select which scores they send to colleges by sitting (test date) for the SAT and by individual test for SAT Subject Tests™.
