I was waitlisted for the subject tests.

Hello,

Yesterday was the registration deadline for the SAT Subject tests of November 4th. I am an international student living in Panama, and since the time is one hour behind US Eastern Time, I got waitlisted since I started registration around 11:20 p.m.

My question is, how reliable is the SAT waitlist? What are the chances of actually taking the test? Does it only work if someone else doen’t take the test that date?

Thanjs

Well you’re not going to get any sympathy for forgetting how time zones work and waiting till the last minute.

Per College Board website:
“Waitlist status may be available beginning from the last registration deadline up until five days before test day, but you should know that getting waitlisted doesn’t guarantee you’ll be able to take the test: Waitlisted students are seated after all regularly registered test-takers have been admitted and if sufficient test materials, staff, and seating are available.”

Hey, me too. And I thought i was the only one who would missed that. Let’s keep our fingers crossed and hope fore the best.
