Questions about sending SAT and AP scores

<p>Hi i have a few questions..</p>

<ol>
<li><p>should i self report my AP scores which i received last year on the common app even though I am not sending an official report from the collegeboard until I get accepted and enroll?</p></li>
<li><p>If i am taking the october SAT, can i see the scores i receive and then decide to send them to colleges for early action (deadline nov 1)</p></li>
<li><p>when u make a request electronically for the collegeboard to send scores, do colleges get them immediately or does it take time? like can i send the scores on october 30?</p></li>
</ol>

<li>AP scores can be self-reported and no need to send official scores until after admission to get credit for them.</li>
</ol>

<p>2 and 3. Most likely. Colleges generally accept the October scores via regular delivery for EA or ED and they can arrive after the app deadline date; in fact many even accept November scores. Nevertheless, it always helps to check particular college because a few may actually say that the score needs to be sent (not just ordered) by the November 1 deadline date in which case it may be safer to name the college as a send before the score comes out to assure it gets sent on time. The agencies usually send scores electronically every two weeks and one goes as soon as test scores come out.</p>

<p>thanks a lot for the responses!</p>
