<p>and I already posted it on another part of the board but…</p>
<p>On common app I accidentally reported to my ED school that I got 10 points higher (720 as opposed to 730, what I reported) on an SAT II test. This was a careless error on my part and I hope that it won’t affect my decision.</p>
<p>My question (and again I know it sounds really anal). Should I call my schools admissions office, just to let them know of this? I know they have the college board transcript that has the actual score. But does ten points look dishonest or just like a typo. I really thought I had a 730 before hand.</p>
<p>So what should I do given that results are going to be mailed sometime this week.</p>
<p>I would definitely call the school ASAP. If they catch it, they may not believe it was an honest mistake. TELL THEM MONDAY MORNING. I think it will cause admissions to think you are very honest and conscientious, which would do nothing but help your chances.</p>
<p>10 pt. you're advising him to bug them for 10 measly points!? Hell, is that even a mistake on the test, or an omitted answer? Don't bother contacting them, 10 pts. should not, and will not, affect your chance there.</p>
<p>i don't think correcting an error is bothering the school. seriously, just e-mail them... <a href="mailto:admissions@brandeis.edu">admissions@brandeis.edu</a>. not a big deal, not a very time-consuming thing to do. why risk them thinking you lied to boost your chances at the school. "better safe than sorry..."</p>
