Sending Collegeboard scores to HYPSM?

<p>Is there any need to do this? </p>

<p>Collegeboard keeps reminding me that I can send my SAT Math II score to any 4 colleges for free, and that this is a good idea because it shows colleges my early interest. </p>

<p>Of course, almost every high-achieving student is interested in HYPSM. They probably all have stellar SAT scores as well. </p>

<p>Is there any use sending SAT scores to colleges (if it helps, I am a rising junior)? Or can I just send them with my college applications?</p>

<p>Not really. That expressed interest means nothing to high rank colleges and it does not really do anything for admission at other colleges except get you a lot of mail trying to recruit your application which mail all comes from organizations or persons who have nothing to do with whether you will be admitted to a college. Only possible reason to use your four free college sends at this point is that they are free. You must list the colleges by next Monday or lose any free sends for the particular test – you can send them free later if you take a future test or just later pay the extra fee per college to send them.</p>

<p>Since you will be taking more SAT next year, it is really useless to send your subject test scores early particularly without any SAT1 score. After you have taken SAT1 (or at the registration for SAT1), you may pick safety schools or schools that want all scores anyway for the 4 free score reports.</p>
