score choice help!!!

<p>hi, i read the whole thing on collegeboard and i was really confused
what is exactly score choice?
and how to use it?
from what i could understand, score choice only applies for the march test onwards??? so if i already took once in Jan (and i didn't score well), will it be sent to colleges?</p>

<p>Ah, let me try to help. I called collegeboard I was confused also! I thought it was something you signed up for, but it’s more just a change in the way they do things. As of last march’s test you can elect NOT to automatically send your scores and (this is the big one) IF the school allows it you can have collegeboard send only your BEST scores to them. We were all excited about it (as my son was taking the SAT for the first time), so we removed the 4 free choices. </p>

<p>Turns out that was a mistake since at least TWO of the schools demand ALL your scores, not just your best. Now I get to pay to send them I guess. My understanding is that the Jan test is gone IF you gave listed that college when you signed up.</p>

<p>Call them for confirmation! The lady I spoke to was super nice.</p>
