Question about ED and Sending Scores

Test Preparation SAT Subject Test Preparation
1

<p>Hi, everyone, I have found a college I am relatively sure I will be applying ED to - the deadline is November 15th. Their website says that if you are applying ED, the latest sitting for which you can register for the SAT/SAT subject tests is the November sitting. The college requires 2 SAT subject tests. I have one (math II, 790) and will take lit in October. When I take the lit test, do I have to send the score before I see it in order for the college to see it on time, or could I wait for the score to come out, and then, if I like it, send it in (as opposed to retaking the test in November if I don't feel confident after the test)?</p>

<p>Just in case I end up taking a test in November, same question: do I have to send it directly to the college, or can I decide whether or not to send it after I've seen the score?</p>

<p>Apologies if this has already been asked, but I wasn't really sure what to search for. Thanks in advance :)</p>

<p>The answer to this will probably be in the college’s FAQ section - if it isn’t there consider emailing the admissions team. I had a similar question in a thread of mine, so you may want to read it. </p>

<p>P.S. Thanks for your posts, nearly all of them have helped me clear the fog that is the college admissions process. Best of luck!</p>

<p>I would email the specific schools and ask. I have a November 1 deadline, so I emailed the school and asked if I could take the October SAT and whether I needed to rush the scores. They said I could take them and I don’t have to rush them. So I would definitely email them and see what they say!</p>

<p>@marianna221b and anyone else who may have a similar question - I finally emailed the college, and they said that I should contact the College Board directly… so now I’m waiting for a response from CB. I’ll post again when I get a response :)</p>

<p>Thank you! I too would love to see the response…</p>

<p>Ugh. There should really be a guide somewhere to clear these things up.</p>

<p>@marianna221b‌ @Bemusedfyz‌ College Board’s response to my question on Facebook:</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>So, looks like we’re fine. Though, it would be nice to have a definite answer as opposed to a “you should have enough time”… at least, if I get in trouble for having one late score, I can show them that the College Board said I’d be fine…</p>
