SAT/AP Scores & Names

Hey, I have a question regarding names on scoresheets. Basically, whenever I signed up for the psat/satIIs/etc., I used the name "Jane Smith" (just giving a random name). However, when I took ap tests last year, I used the name "Elizabeth Smith" (another random name), for various reasons that I won't go into now. I don't remember ever filling out ss numbers on the registration sheets at the test since the proctor always said they were optional. Now my problem is- will my ap scores actually get sent along w/ my sat scores to colleges, or will they somehow end up in random files and/or get lost? (I'm not quite sure how the sending of scores works). Has anyone signed up w/ different names for different tests...and if so, was this is a problem? Any suggestions as to what I should do??

Thanks in advance..

Haha.....AP scores NEVER go with SAT scores. You have to pay a seperate fee to send an AP report. Usually you do NOT send AP scores to a college, you just self-report them and they believe you. Most schools don't claim/admit to really using AP scores in admissions decisions. When you matriculate and they want proof of those AP scores you self-reported, then they ask for the official AP transcript. Don't pay to send AP scores if it's not required, you'd just be wasting a bunch of money.
