Lack of Score Choice - how do they know?

<p>Basically, how does penn know if their applicants have sent them all of their scores or just the best ones? Does collegeboard send ALL scores if they're aware of the school's policy, or does it say on the official report "only some scores shown". Does anyone know anything about this?</p>

<p>Good luck trying to cheat the system.</p>

<p>They don’t.</p>

<p>Why does it matter? Unless of course you are trying to cheat your way in…</p>

<p>I have a great superscore combo from just two SAT’s, and am worried about my competition. Say, if someone else took it three times and submitted their stellar two, equating to my only 2 SAT I’s…</p>

<p>I wouldn’t do it if i were you…</p>

<p>I wouldn’t do it, but my friend called college board and said that they have absolutely no way of knowing</p>

<p>seriously, SAT scores are not that big of a deal. really. they’re not going to make or break you. the more qualitative stuff is SO much more important (aka: girl in my high school was in top 5–super hard; had 2400; didn’t get into any ivies. guy on the forum: in m&t, got like a 2040 or something.)</p>

<p>thanks guys.</p>

<p>yeah, i’m not so worried about my sat I’s as my II’s. I love submitting my 2 SAT sittings, cause there was improvement, and both were over 2100. but i experimented with math subject tests, and even the highlights aren’t that spectacular.</p>

<p>Anyway, i’m sending them all since my transcript lists them anyway. Blah.</p>

<p>How the hell did someone in the top 5 at Exeter with a 2400 not get into any ivies? Did she have any skeletons in her closet?</p>

<p>being that the score choice system is in its first year, no 1 knows whether the schools rejecting the policy (like penn) can contact the collegeboard for individual students. I no that the cb can do nothing to inform the colleges, but colleges may very well be able to contact the cb.</p>

<p>CB cannot release information without the consent of the student</p>
