<p>Is it possible to not sign up for a test, then go take it and later not pay any money for it? This way the person will know what that edition of the test looked like and then they can discuss the answer later. Kind of like a practice test…</p>
<p>Do some people do that or is that a new loophole in the CB program?</p>
<p>no that is not allowed. if you take the test you have to submit it for a score and the college board will bill you for it later. it doesn’t matter if you signed up for the test or not, if you decide on test day that that is the subject test you want to take you must submit it for a score (unless you decide to cancel it) and pay for it.</p>
<p>So, I guess if you really wanted to you could take the test, pay for it, and then cancel it. I see no logic in that though, just buy a review book that has practice tests and use those to practice. or just go to sparknotes.com, make a user name and take their free tests, they are very accurate.</p>
<p>but if you don’t pay for the score report, what are they going to do?</p>
<p>what do you mean if you don’t pay for the score report? they are gonna automatically bill you for it using the same payment information that you used to sign up and register for your college board account</p>
<p>but if you don’t give your creadit card number they can’t pressure you into it, are they going to ask you for it the next time you take an SAT test?</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure that if you are taking the test standyby, you still have to pay via a credit card account. If you don’t have an account set up on college board, they can look up your name and info to find it.</p>
<p>Don’t **** with the collegeboard, they can ruin your life.</p>
<p>If you want practice tests, order the collegeboard official sat II test book. It has actual tests from the past. No matter what, you’ll have to pay for the exam, the collegeboard knows what they’re doing. Also, if you cancel your scores on one subject test, you cancel all of your scores from any other subject tests you may have taken that day (except in the case of Math where you can cancel the math exam by itself if your calculator dies). I agree with the person above, mess with collegeboard and you’ll regret it.</p>
<p>Sounds like something I’d do.</p>
<p>The problem with using other prep books is that they are not official college board tests, which means that they might not accurately portray the difficulty level of the real thing. The official college board SAT II book is excellent, the only problem being that there is only one of each test in there. If you really want to have an edge it is not a bad idea to sign up for a test, pay for it, take it just to get a feel for the difficulty and questions types, and then cancel it. Though this seems a bit extreme, the tests are pretty cheap, $8 if I am not mistaken, and having solid scores can aid you significantly with the competitive college admissions game. So if you are willing to, I’d say go for it just to get more exposure to tests. It can’t hurt let’s just put it that way.</p>
<p>I agree … I think sometimes ppl are intimidated by the fact that they might not get a perfect score the 1st time…the thing is that you need to work for it.</p>
<p>Oh, I see. I just thought about it because it seemed like something people would do</p>
