<p>The College Board website says to allow one month for scores to be sent. So yes, unless your deadlines are February or later, you should rush deliver.</p>
<p>You can send your December scores later - on the line for SAT scores on your applications, write in the December test date and leave the scores part blank. That way your colleges will know that you took the test and are waiting for scores. You don't have to send them if they're bad.</p>
