Hi. I’m an international student in 11th grade and I’ll be taking the SAT for the first time in June. I don’t think I’m going to do well, because I’m not very prepared in math. Should I make use of the 4 free score reports? Is it a good idea to send them to “All Scores” schools? Would it harm me in any way if I fail the test on June and still send the score to safeties (which I haven’t listed)?
I’ll be retaking the SAT on October.
- You cannot "Fail" the SAT, you just can get a low score.
- Since it is your first time taking it and you do not feel confident, I would wait until the scores are back before sending, unless paying later to send the score reports would be financially difficult.
- If you have some safety schools on your list, you could use the free score reports for these schools.
Also, if there is a school that requires all scores, send them there
