<p>am i reading this correctly when it says there's an additional 30 dollar surcharge for standby testing? WTF? i'm taking ONE sat II & i have to pay 30 bucks to re-take it in december? </p>
<p>can someone explain the process clearly? because the book doesnt do a great job. thanks!</p>
<p>I took standby in Nov and this is how it went:</p>
<p>You fill out the paper registration form, pay the extra money (I think it is $35), and you show up early to the test center on test day. You tell the registration person that you are a standby tester. If there is room, you go to the room with your registration in its envelope and take the test. After the test, you take your registration to the original registration person who you told that you were a standby. You then wait 2 weeks for you score :)</p>
