<p>Yea so I got home today and my dad was just randomly taking to me abou thow people on west coast can cheat by askin people on east coast about test, but i said no they probably cant do that.</p>
<p>I dunno is this true???????</p>
<p>probably not. theres only a 3 hour time difference, so you'd be taking your test when they start theirs if you're on the east coast. then to cheat they'd have to look at their phone or something and get kicked out. so i don't think its possible. maybe if they took sat's in europe it would be... 6 hr diff.</p>
<p>Okay CB is well aware of that and therefor they probably have different tests</p>
<p>I am sure CB knew about this before hand obviously</p>
<p>yea. plus, you have to consider the international students living at a 12-hour + or - time zone.</p>
<p>yeah lol my dad asked same thing... when we're done with test (12:30) the will have already started (9:30 am). so not really.... unless guy tells his friend in west coast that he'll take SAT and look at all the questions and then leave early (cancel his score) and then call the guy up before guy in west takes it. ahahahahah</p>
<p>Are you sure west coast/east coast have different tests? Look at the Jan 2008 SAT Writing topic. They started discussing it at 10:42AM WEST COAST time, and it looks like everybody had the same test. Considering the SAT strictly starts at 7:45-8:15, I highly doubt you could finish it and go home by 10:42AM.</p>
<p>If you look at the discussions here, it looks like there was just one test for both west coast and east coast, unless everyone here in college confidential is from the west coast lol.</p>
<p>The SAT tests for the WEst and East coast are the same...</p>
<p>it would probably be possible in Hawaii, but I don't know anybody who takes the SAT on the mainland, and here everybody would be too competitive to do that anyway. but hypothetically its possible.</p>
<p>it's def the same test though, but the essay prompt will vary from person to person.</p>
<p>nope, diff tests in diff time zones for that very reason..</p>
<p>uh, no.</p>
<p>the questions I had were exactly the ones discussed in the ongoing threads. (minus experimentals)</p>
<p>People in Hawaii could pull that off. But I don't know why you would want to do that, it'd be with you till you die =[</p>
<p>^guys, what about Win8282's comment? I think it'd be crazy if people from like japan/korea (china doesn't have SAT center) had the SAME SAT test, since they'd gain an insane advantage, especially if they log into CC</p>
<p>lol i dont think japanese kids need any help to get an amazing score</p>
<p>The international date line kind of ****s me up, but don't japanese/chinese students take the SAT tomorrow? Or was it yesterday? I'm confused =/</p>
<p>Anyway I'm willing to bet they get a different test, maybe it's by countries or something.</p>
<p>(doesn't really matter to us I guess since a very small percentage of those kids will actually be directly competing with us for admissions)</p>
<p>^if they do take the same test, i'd be REALLY p *ssed big time. Also, they probably do affect our admission chances. I mean... asians... (not stereotyping. in fact, I'm an asian too, but living close to the U.S.)</p>

<p>if they took it on January 26 (their time) they would have taken it yesterday. If anybody is getting an advantage out of this, it would be kids in the U.S. (that is if they subscribe to a Japanese forum and can read Japanese fluently :))</p>
