I accidentally sent all my scores

Test Preparation

<p>Yesterday I accidentally sent all my scores to the colleges I apply.I have taken the SAT reasoning test thrice ,OCT reading 530 MATH 600 Writing 640 ,NOV reading 580 MATH 700 Writing 680, DEC reading 630 Math 690 Writing 710,respectively.</p>

<p>I wanted to superscore so as to be more competitive, but sadly I sent them all.
And none of the colleges I apply require to send all scores. According to some admission offices, they claim they only consider the best single set of test or the best section scores combined. So my question is whether I will have an disadvantage over other applicants with the same scores given my bad performance in October? Even if the colleges claim they will only see for the best? Or will my upward trend Sat scores be a sign of my improvements?</p>

<p>I am also quite confused about the score choice. Now that the colleges just see for the best performances , we can send all of our scores. Why bothers to choose to send the best one? </p>

<p>BTW, can anyone tell me about the difference between Highest Section Scores Across Test Dates — Version 1(Highest M, CR, W) and Highest Section Scores Across Test Dates — Version 2(Highest M, CR, W).I cannot get across it.</p>

<p>Thanks a lot.</p>

<p>There is no real difference of importance between version 1 and 2. The 1 version says it accepts score choice, the 2 version college says the same but adds the strong recommendation to send all scores.</p>

<p>Sending all scores does not hurt you at either since they will use your highest section scores from the multiple tests to determine admission and do not hold lower scores against you. If they use only highest section scores and ignore lower, then why bother to exercise score choice and send only selected scores? Because human nature results in many students who just cannot bring themselves to believe that the colleges are telling the truth when they say the don’t use the lower scores against you.</p>
