Hey guys! I was wondering, are there any drawbacks to registering late for the SAT, aside from the extra costs? I plan on taking the SAT twice before it is redesigned, but I forgot to sign up to take the SAT in December, so now I have to register late. However, I have heard from some sources that registering late doesn’t guarantee you a spot, but I don’t see it mentioned on College Board’s website at all.
Should I still register for the December SAT? Are there any other drawbacks to late registration aside from added costs?
You can still register for the January one
@TakeachanceNYU I’m mainly worried about the December one at the moment, though, since I’m planning on taking the old SAT two times.
@Greninja the test centers may be filled becuase sophomores through seniors are trying to get those last tests in because no one want’s to take the redesigned one. When you register it says if seats are still open in certain test centers. I would register late anyway while also registering for the January one because trust me that one will be filled with Juniors and Sophmores. Good Luck!
@TakeachanceNYU Okay then thanks! I was looking into it and I think only need to worry if I’m getting waitlisted. I’m going to register late anyways though. Good luck to you too when you take the SAT!
