Is it mandatory to send SAT scores in?

<p>Say I took the Dec this 6th and got scores back (but was not satisfied with it) and am willing to do better the next test for a desired score.. can I not report this score and report the latest one? </p>

<p>Or are they all checked by default</p>

<p>It depends on the college and if it requires that you send all scores.</p>

<p>The colleges can only view the scores you send them. There’s no way for them to know your previous scores, if not sent to them.</p>

<p>There are a number of colleges that require you to send all SAT scores. For a list go here and see colleges identified as “All Scores” colleges: <a href=“http://professionals.collegeboard.com/profdownload/sat-score-use-practices-list.pdf”>http://professionals.collegeboard.com/profdownload/sat-score-use-practices-list.pdf&lt;/a&gt; When you go to apply, you still need to check each college because the list is continuously changing (every year there have been some “all scores” colleges that have switched to allowing you to send what you want to send.</p>
