<p>Hi
I registered for March 14 SATs in my area. While I was registering, there was an option to send SAT score reports to 4 colleges of my choice for free. I listed my top 4 colleges (Ivys).
I am still a junior in High School, so should I use the Score Choice option? If yes, should I list my top 4 schools as it is my first time taking the SATs and I am not so confident about CR.</p>
<p>Please let me know soon so I can make necessary changes to my registration.</p>
<p>Thanks guys!</p>
<p>NO TRY AND CHANGE IT. They will immediately send your scores to the colleges you listed. You won’t be able to stop them from sending the scores unless you take the four colleges off the list. You can use score choice only if you do not send your SAT scores while registering. You will have to pay later to send your scores with score choice, but it will be worth it because you can supress your bad scores.</p>
<p>As juniors, should we even be sending our scores to colleges? I plan on taking Math 2 in May and I’m pretty confident I’ll get an 800, so should I send all of my subject test scores (the rest were pretty good as well) to colleges already? I would definitely like to save $40 by sending it when I take the SAT II, but I don’t know if I should be sending it when I haven’t applied to college yet.</p>
<p>So what should I do? Is it worth spending money later to send score reports? because I really dont feel confident for CR.</p>
<p>It’s generally a bad idea to send them immediately since you are able to take them several more times.</p>
<p>With Score Choice, you can choose which ones to send. Therefore, if you totally screw up this time, you don’t have to send your March scores. If you list four colleges, I’m pretty sure that College Board will send them. </p>
<p>Personally, I think it is worth it to wait and spend money later.</p>
<p>ok thanks guys. I will go and remove the colleges.</p>
<p>EDIT: It requires me to select atleast 1 college/ scholarship program.
What should I do? This new feature of collegeboard really bothering me.</p>
<p>Should I just choose a college I dont really wanna go to?</p>
<p>Please guys help. I got SATs in 5 days.</p>
<p>Wait…I thought that colleges allow students to have their schools send the scores? Does it have to be from TCB or ACT? That’s a lot of money if they don’t allow it and the kid is applying to a lot of schools…</p>
<p>Ok the score choice requires me to have atleast 1 school added. What do I do? On top it says add universities and scholarships.</p>
<p>Please help me out guys, I dont wanna screw up.</p>
<p>comon guys. the deadline os tomorrow. should i add any colleges?</p>
<p>If it is making you add a college on there, then just add a school that you are not interested in or a safety school that you know your SAT scores will be fine for even if you don’t do that well. Good luck.</p>
<p>thanks, thats a good idea</p>
<p>I think this is all way too much worrying. I never suggest to my children that they waste free score reports. Just decide beforehand to have the scores sent to any convenient list of colleges you are interested in. Colleges consider your best scores for admission. (And why are you taking the SAT if you don’t think you’ll do reasonably well for someone in your grade?)</p>
<p>I already sent my scores to some colleges but I haven’t applied yet. I going to apply RD this fall/winter. Do I have to resend my scores to those colleges again? And my first SAT 1 scores weren’t too good - 2170? Will these negatively affect my chances?</p>
<p>Even if you don’t send them, don’t colleges find out all your SAT scores anyway? That’s what my mother told me, and she asked the one of the admissions guys at the University of Rochester, for which she works. She said that the guy told her just to send them to the top schools you’re considering, regardless of how well you think you did. So I just sent mine to some crazy schools into which I’ll probably never be admitted, but you never know.</p>
