One more NMSF question

D is waiting to hear if she made the cut-off. In the meantime she took the SAT in Nov 11 and got a 2065, so good enough for NMSF. She is not happy with it and is retaking in June 12. I didn't know to send the free copy to NMC in Nov 11 so figured I would request to send the free one with the june 12 test. Question - what if she bombs the June test and gets below what she needs for NMF? Do I still have the alternative to then pay to send the Nov 11 scores? Or am I better off to wait and just pay to send the higher score?

    squidge...Just my personal opinion, but I would pay now and send the 2065 score to NMSC and have it done and over with. When she retakes the SAT in June, you can use the free score choice to send to a university of her choice, or if a potentially lower score is a real concern don't use the free choice auto delivery at all.
