OMG! I hate collegeboard! they dont still give me my score!

<p>I took the SAT reasoning test on december 2007.
and i was supposed to get the score online after 3 weeks since i took the test
but online says not yet available, and come back after a week whaterver..</p>

<p>but they didnt sill show my grade
so i called them, and they said there is a large difference between the one test that i took on june 2007 and the other test that i took on december 2007. They didnt say to me i cheated. but I think the reason why they dont show my grade is to check my test if i cheated.</p>

<p>they told me to call them back this friday... if they dont give me my grade...
what should i do</p>

<p>well, I would have an explanation as to why you did so much better= prep class, sick first time, that sort of thing, just in case they don’t trust the score</p>

<p>what if they tell me my answer is all same as the person next to me…
there sometimes could be some werid situation… so… what should i talk to them when they say so…</p>

<p>tell them what really happened… if nothing “fishy” occured, you should be fine.</p>

<p>omg… even though u guys said that to me.. why am i still tense…
do they usually give to the students the grade, even tho they think the student was cheating?</p>

<p>Consider getting a parent involved. This situation has arisen before (and been discussed on the parents forum). I believe it was only resolved after a threat of legal action (against College Board) was made.</p>

<p>fireflyscout… so … what do u mean… u mean it is gonna be okay or what?
if my parents get involved on this problem?
what should they do?</p>

<p>i’m pretty sure they are better than ACT</p>

<p>What did you score on the first test?</p>

<p>what do u mean by you are pretty sure they are better than ACT?</p>

<p>well, did you cheat?</p>

<p>kidding me bradshaw? what a dumb
if i cheated i wouldn’t even write about this on here</p>

<p>This happened to me very recently </p>

<p>Collegeboard hands the issue over to the ETS and they investigate. As long as you followed their rules properly, you will be fine. Rules meaning, working on the right part at the right time and all that.</p>

<p>I took it April 2006 and got a 1640
I took it November 2007 and got a 2240</p>

<p>So that raised a lot of eyebrows. I called again and again and complained on how absurd of a policy it was- I was furious, it was interfering with scholarship stuff. So, my score came out about 2.5 weeks after it was supposed to. Just be a real pain, keep calling, keep pushing, and keep checking online.</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>

<p>akahmed ! thank you! but they told me to call them on friday tho…
should i call them tomorrow even tho tomorrow is thursday?</p>

<p>One time, they told me to call Thursday, but I was worried and upset, so I called Wednesday demanding more info. You have done nothing wrong, you followed all the rules and just did really good. If its anyone’s fault, its those people who have others take their test for them that cause CB to have such fear.</p>

<p>It is a major pain to have to go through this. I don’t know if you already mentioned, but if you are a senior and are applying to college, I would contact all your colleges and tell them so they know what to expect.</p>

<p>Other than that all you can do is wait. </p>

<p>I kept calling them, and kept an annoying/worried/worried to the point where I will call my local newspaper tone, and they released them.</p>

<p>They say the time is between 2 and 4 weeks, so keep calling, not everyday of course, but to remind them to be on their feet with this issue, as it does have to do with your life.</p>

<p>Wait it out, I hope it works out for you.</p>

<p>Here is a link which explains scores that are questioned.</p>

<p>[Advice:</a> Disputes with ETS | The Princeton Review](<a href=“SAT Prep Options | SAT Courses | The Princeton Review”>SAT Prep Options | SAT Courses | The Princeton Review)</p>

<p>Below is part of the article.</p>

<p>Delays in receiving test scores sometimes occur. When a student is notified that there is a delay in processing an SAT score, most often (perhaps 3/4 of the time) this results in the release (i.e., not canceling) of the score; however, there is also a 1/4 possibility of the most difficult dispute with ETS–questioned or challenged scores. These are euphemisms for ETS accusing a test taker of cheating, or otherwise unfairly obtaining a test score.</p>

<p>The following will focus on questioned or challenged scores. Again, most other disputes with ETS should be addressed by a letter and telephone follow-up. It is in the area of questioned score disputes that the stakes for the test-taker are the highest, and that ETS has its own arcane procedures which apply.</p>

<p>A student or parent or counselor may wonder exactly what the challenged score was. Sometimes ETS personnel will give the score over the telephone; sometimes they won’t. Yet the score is on the first page (“Score Review Summary”) of the student’s file held by ETS. Just ask for the file (see Section IX below) to find out the questioned score.</p>

<p>as akahmed said i called over and over , and the one who takes care of my case seems to not finish the review thing yet…
is there anyone whose test’s scores is received for really long time… i mean it took so long
its been almost 2 months since the day i took the test
even tho i told them if i cant get the scores i cant apply to college, they seem never care about that</p>

<p>As I said before, get a parent to call College Board. Threaten them with legal action, going to the press, whatever, if necessary. They will pay more attention to an adult than to you, sorry to say.</p>

<p>have your parents done this before?</p>

<p>if your approach is getting no where, oF COURSE you need to have someone else step in…I don’t understand why you haven’t doen that already</p>
