<p>Okay son took the SAT on Saturday. Had a 213 on his PSATs. On one of the math sections when he finished he had 2 extra bubbles and saw that somehow he had skipped two questions. He tried to go back and figure out which ones but the time was up. He is struggling with what to do - cancel the test or let it process.<br>
He is already scheduled to take it again on 6/3. He is unsure if seeing how he did will help him or if having a possible very artificially low score on the record will have a big negative impact. Any thoughts?</p>
<p>Mis-bubbling an entire section is going to take a big toll on the score. I suggest canceling it (today is the last day I think) and then just taking it in June.</p>
<p>he may still have done well on the CR or Writing section. Remember schools take the highest combined scores.</p>
<p>That's horrible, and sad to hear of your son's unfortunate incident. </p>
<p>What he could do is contact the College Board and inform them of his situation and they could possibly fix it, I'm not sure. If you know for sure that this is what really happened, then go ahead and cancel the scores, because it's pointless to have low scores on his record. It will follow him to where ever he applies as an undergraduate at any university (depending on the university if they accept the SAT), he sounds like a bright kid, but you wouldn't him going through the college application process explaining in either his essays or personal statements why he scored so low the first time, and then brilliantly the second. </p>
<p>I'd say, if you know for a fact, that all his answers were moved up by two causing them to be wrong, then CANCEL A.S.A.P.</p>
<p>Thanks for the input. I know he will appreciate it.</p>
