Is it alright that I didn't send Jan scores to the college that admitted me?

<p>I applied to Princeton with the SAT scores that I had as of December 2007. Then I tried SAT II Literature for the first time in January 2008. My Lit score was awful, at least when compared to my other SAT IIs (all science/math). So I didn’t send the Lit score to Princeton.</p>

<p>Now I’ve been admitted to Princeton this year but have deferred my enrolment till next year (Sep 2009). I plan to take some additional SAT IIs between now and then for advanced placement. Problem is, if I send my future SAT IIs, Princeton will see my lousy Jan 2008 SAT II which I deliberately didn’t send to Princeton before they admitted me. Will Princeton revoke my admission and think that I misrepresented myself because of this?</p>

<p>What did you ever tell Princeton about Duke? </p>

<p>I withdrew my place from Duke last year and applied to college again because I didn’t get scholarships and needed financial aid. (I’m an international and Duke is need-aware for internationals) Is there a problem?</p>

<p>oops, I just realized I double-posted this thread in the Princeton forum!!</p>

<p>Edit: Oh, tokenadult moved my thread.</p>

<p>My understanding is that colleges “superscore” the SAT II’s also and look at the highest two or three depending on how many they require. So your Lit one wouldn’t have been counted anyway. If someone has different information I would be interested in knowing about. My D was unhappy with some of her scores so is going to take more than the required number of tests in hopes of getting several high scores. </p>

<p>I’m curious about your status. Why are you deferring another year?</p>

<p>I’m deferring because of military service. thanks for your advice, i’m also of the opinion that my Lit score won’t matter because Princeton is supposed to superscore. :slight_smile: i just want to ask for more opinions</p>
