What counts as an omit?

<p>I got 2 omit on both the math and CR sections, but I'm 100% sure I answered every single question on every single section. Is anyone else having the same sort of problem? Do stray marks and such automatically count as omits?</p>

<p>same problem here! an omit in each section. thats BS.</p>

<p>yeah, i believe you are correct. If the scanner discovers that there is more than one answer filled in, it will omit that question (i think). You should call them first to see if this is true, and then decide to hand-grade if you believe that this might have occured.</p>

<p>SAME PROBLEM!!!
i've never omitted a question in a high school PSAT/SAT/AP
and now it says I omitted 2 on CR.
I'm not gonna bother with the hand grading though since my score was good overall and it wouldn't be worth it. Plus, if both "omits" were wrong, it would probably lower my score.</p>

<p>Don't you think it is a little weird that many people are having this problem for this October test, when this issue has never been brought up before?</p>

<p>It's my first time on CC. I too have never omitted a single question on any Standardized test, so when it turned up with me having 2 omits on writing, I was slightly miffed, to put it lightly.</p>

<p>10 omits on math. There is NO way I omitted 10.
I know I saw every problem in math, and I know
I filled out every bubble.</p>

<p>Is this usual for the SATs?</p>

<p>it happened to my friend also, they said he omitted 2 on writing but he always fills every one in even if it's just a guess. </p>

<p>does anyone know what will happen if you ask for a hand regrade and your score becomes lower? will they just let you keep the first score? it seems like it'd be the courteous thing for them to do, considering you're paying $50 and they messed up in the first place.</p>

<p>MechRocket: Your score becomes lower, no doubt about it. CB explicitly says so on the hand-scoring page.</p>
