<p>wow. i’m leaving for New York at 5 a.m. ET… -<em>- I’m getting back on the 4th T</em>T i’m gonna dieeeeeeee</p>
<p>^^ That’s why man invented the Blackberry.</p>
<p>i wish you could do the early score order for march test just like october! they literally have our scores on the website now but hidden until april 1… -_-</p>
<p>What’s the point of making us wait for our scores? They should give it to us right when they have it.</p>
<p>They wait until the day after the registration deadline for the next test to give out the scores.</p>
<p>So dumb.</p>
<p>Patience young ones.</p>
<p>That is unfortunate. Is that intentional?</p>
<p>obviously intentioonal. collegeboard is a business they rack in sooo much money</p>
<p>Collegeboard, as we all know, is a multi-million dollar corporation (possibly a billion dollar corporation). Everything they do is to gain revenue, they don’t care about anyone but themselves. They feed off student’s anxiety, fear, and impatience. It’s quite sadistic.</p>
<p>Well, we are somewhat obligated to purchase their products.</p>
<p>I don’t plan on taking the next SAT offered though.</p>
<p>^That was what I planned to do when I took my first one. Sadly, when I looked at my score, it seemed so low and not perfect that it drove me to sign up for March SAT and hope to score 700 on each section.</p>
<p>Hope you stay firm to what you say.</p>
<p>I’ll probably take it again in October. However, I still have to take the ACT and do all of my AP tests, in addition to SAT II’s. I won’t have too much time to study for the next test offered so I feel that it would be more beneficial for me to study over the summer.</p>
<p>Am I the only one that read somewhere once that collegeboard was a non-profit business? lol…or am I hallucinating?</p>
<p>no it’s non-profit.</p>
<p>[About</a> the College Board](<a href=“College Board - SAT, AP, College Search and Admission Tools”>College Board - SAT, AP, College Search and Admission Tools)
^first sentence.</p>
<p>I think they just need a tonnnn of money to run everything. My dad graded free responses for an AP test the past couple years - they paid him a one or two thousand for a week AND covered his plane ticket (which was cross-country), food, hotel room, etc. So multiply that by however many graders they have for all the APs, the SAT essay, etc. and that’s a lot of money on that one little aspect alone.</p>
<p>^Then take into account their money making schemes such as ReadiStep, Score Choice, the inflation of the number or required standardized tests, and their theft-like deadlines and there is the college board with a boat load or money.</p>
<p>^ Not really. They still have to pay their employees with that money and then whatever’s left is the revenue.</p>
<p>5 more days…110 hours…this is pure agony</p>
<p>yes, they are non profit, but that doesn’t stop 12 officials from making 300,000</p>
<p>all combined, those are the sat fees for about 80,000 kids. just on 12 people.</p>
<p>the cb takes a lot of criticism for their exorbitant salaries under a “not-for-profit” status</p>
<p>Shaheiruddin, the Better Business Bureau gave CB an F rating. It is a very questionable organization.</p>
<p>If you look at BBB explanation, it’s a load of BS. Essentially, the College Board wouldn’t turn over info and respond to a “complaint” from a <em>private</em> organization. The BBB itself is rather questionable, based somewhat on an extortion scheme.</p>
