Mild seizure duing test, what do I do?

<p>I had to stop a quarter way though Literature because I had a mild seizure, this after I felt like I did very well on Math II (probably an 800).I applied ED to Northwestern, should I send a high score with such a low score (probably 300-400)? I got a 5 on AP BC calc and ENglish Language, should this be enough to offset my scores if I cancel them? SHOULD I can cancel theM? All I want to do is get into NU :frowning: :frowning: thanks</p>

<p>Also I got a 760 CR and 770 M for the regular SAT</p>

<p>Perhaps you could explain your situation to the university. I’m pretty sure they’d be understanding…</p>

<p>Im so screwed</p>

<p>It depends on your major, and if you took any other subject tests. I think if you did really good on the math, you shouldn’t cancel. Just write a letter explaining the situation, along with some medical history (if you are prone to these seizures).</p>

<p>Why are you not taking your meds?</p>

<p>Do you have a choice? If you applied ED isnt Nov. the last possible date for SATs?</p>

<p>You yourself, and whoever ran your test center should contact collegeboard. Some sort of written explanation from CB to northwestern might excuse you from having to send your 2nd score? Who knows…</p>

<p>I assume you having a seizure caught ur proctors attention, and he/she could vouch for you.</p>

<p>I already left, I dont recall the proctors name (or what she looked like for that matter). Im applying to the CA&S which doesnt require SATIIs, so will it hurt me to not send them in??</p>

<p>??? ?</p>

<p>Did you get a doctors note or anything saying that you had a seizure??? You should probably get this documented and call the Northwestern ASAP and explain what happened. They may be very understanding. I have heard of kids who have medical explanations having exceptions made for them. Good luck and be honest. I would use your MathhII score that is excellent. If they see an 800 and a 400 they will understand better based on your story. Did you tell anyone who was administering the test? Do you have these seizures often? Get your doctor to write you a note pronto!!! Good luck and hang in there.</p>

<p>I guess they might have seen… This was my first one, I dont remmeber much, but I recall coming back to conciousness and seeing that all the time was gone (I didnt fall asleep haha). It wasnt like I fell on the floor or anything. if I cancel them does it hurt my admissions chances badly?</p>

<p>bumpppppopp</p>

<p>Can’t you just use score choice?</p>

<p>College board will cancel just one of your scores if you had a calculator or CD player problem; I can only assume they’d do the same for a seizure?</p>
