How much at risk am I in in this scenario

Test Preparation

<p>CB only sends the scores (reports you) if you send them your sats right? If you take the ACTs colleges won’t know because CB doesn’t know which colleges you’re applying to</p>

<p>so what happened to this kid anyway =]</p>

<p>[SAT</a>, ACT cheats face no penalty - Los Angeles Times](<a href=“http://articles.latimes.com/2008/jul/14/local/me-cheat14]SAT”>SAT, ACT cheats face no penalty)</p>

<p>If your proctor files an incident report, then CB will cancel your scores. There will be no further consequences. However, if your school somehow finds out about it they could punish you.</p>

<p>just to prove a point, my friend got caught using an electronic dictionary the first time he took the SAT and his scores were canceled. the second time, he flipped sections but didn’t get caught, and ended up with a 2400. no consequences whatsoever.</p>

44

<p>um… one question I need to ask you, you said that section 3 was experimental. I looked at CB website, none of the test section has section 3 as experimental…</p>

<p>why would someone that is capable of getting a 2400 cheat with an electric dictionary? lol</p>

47

<p>^ because he was stuck on one of the sentence completions? i think it was during the break that he was caught.</p>

48

<p>Not much, don’t listen to all those people scaring you</p>

<p>While students who are caught cheating in college may face probation or be expelled, students who cheat on one a college entrance exam get a second shot at a higher score. And neither the college nor the student’s high school are alerted about the student’s dishonest behavior.</p>

<p>“We don’t tell schools or anyone else; we simply cancel the score,” said ACT spokesman Ed Colby. “What we’re trying to do is make sure the scores that we send to colleges are valid. It’s not our intention to go around punishing students who make mistakes or who’ve done something they shouldn’t have.”</p>

<p>Cheating Policies Don’t Encourage Ethical Conduct</p>

<p>Critics contend that the ACT’s policy to keep testing irregularities confidential — a policy that is also held by the SAT — sends a message that cheating on the test is OK and has few consequences.</p>
