Ok so I am in a dilemma here. I have the SAT in 5 days and I totally forgot that I had signed up for the essay portion aswell.
This my first time taking it, (rising senior) and I was wondering that if I do poorly on the essay, can I choose to just send the SAT score without the essay to the colleges? I think you can do that with ACT but I’m not sure for the SAT. It would be really sad if my essay score negatively affects me. Thankyou for any help.
I called collegeboard on this one. At this time there is no way in their system to NOT send the scores without the essay. I told them they should make a way, and if need be, charge a fee to not send the essay score, make it separate from the other scores. For that to happen more people would have to call. Since it is optional to even do the essay it is unfair that it has to be sent.
