Pick which score schools see - starting March 2009

<p>In March 2009, applicants will be able to pick which SAT scores they want their schools to see - which may not affect superscoring between various sessions, but will allow only the highest score to be seen.</p>

<p>Students</a> to select SAT scores - News</p>

<p>is this for real. does this apply to all the schools? and can i take the SAT before march 2009 and pick the score i want when march 2009 comes along.</p>

<p>^ Yes (10char)</p>

<p>not fair for seniors!!! haha</p>

<p>Wait...so do you send in your best score, or can you mix and match to send in a superscore of sorts?</p>

<p>nah they say 1 sitting on the page, so no superscore :(</p>

<p>I preferred the old system with superscoring and can be seen by all!!!</p>

<p>Tis a pity to be a rising sophomore...</p>

<p>this new system doesn't mean there isn't superscoring! just b/c you can't pick and choose sections (CR, M, W) to report from individual sittings doesn't mean colleges won't superscore what you report... the only reason i can think of for someone to not report one of their SATs is if all 3 sections from that test are lower than any others.</p>

<p>for example,</p>

<p>1st sitting: CR 600, M 600, W 700 (1900)
2nd sitting: CR 500, M 500, W 500 (1500)
3rd sitting: CR 700, M 700, W 600 (2000)</p>

<p>This person could choose to hide their 2nd sitting of the test.</p>

<p>Also, they can't choose to report 1st sitting ONLY Writing and 2nd sitting ONLY Reading + Math... They have to report all W, M, and CR from each sitting.</p>

<p>But colleges will still superscore this (1st + 3rd sitting), and so the student would have a 2100 (since their highest was 700 for each section).</p>

<p>^Good point. Superscoring is beneficial to all...</p>

<p>There have been lots of threads on this. Here is the official College Board link: </p>

<p>New</a> SAT Score-Reporting Policy</p>

<p>wait but isn't it true that colleges can force you to send all of your scores regardless of this new policy</p>
