<p>A job I applied for wanted my LSAT scores from over 10 yrs ago. I could get them w/a written request & a fee (maybe same for SAT?). If I had to take the SAT again–math would be a problem, since I’ve done so little (except figuring out tips) since college!! Good luck VHappy.</p>
<p>
Whoo, glad I could help. :)</p>
<p>Very Happy–I have a feeling you’re not going to have an easy time getting your old SATs. Personally, I rather take the certification tests than deal with the College Board folks. The tests I took were pretty easy; I did them both on a Saturday. I looked at the practice tests–I’m sure they’re available in your state too. </p>
<p>Plus, by taking the test and acing it–you can show potential employers that your age isn’t an issue. I’m assuming that you’re probably in your late 50s (based on the dates of the scores). Given that there’s definitely age discrimination it might be better to take a current test.</p>
<p>Very Happy - Not sure about the SAT’s , but I know for a fact that those old GRE’s are no longer available. I had the same dilemma last year (applying to a MAT program where GRE’s were required, and I took mine in 1981.) I was told by the powers that be that scores are not kept for more than 10 or 15 years.</p>
<p>I eventually was able to get the GRE requirement waived based on the fact that I was admitted to a very competitive grad school using those scores 25 years ago. Good luck!</p>
<p>The SAT form that Bodacious G referenced gave a price of $33 to get your old pre 1975 SAT score dug out of archives. So you may be in luck…</p>
<p>I have to admit that I recall both my SAT scores and my GRE scores. [hangs head]</p>
<p>I was actually asked for the latter when considering applying for a job as a Kaplan instructor. Finally! A job I could get mostly by virtue of my affinity for standardized tests!</p>
<p>They said that my scores were fine (800V/700M), but that if hired I would have to retake them since the originals were from 1975. The verbal section I wouldn’t worry about, but I doubt I could crack 700 in math again, since I haven’t taken a math course for 33 years!</p>
<p>This is a truly frightening thread. I thought one of the main benefits of being a grownup was never having to take a test again. God, I hope I never lose my day job. The thought that somewhere someone has my ancient SAT scores? Shudder! A visual of a huge government warehouse ala Raiders of the Lost Ark springs to mind.</p>
<p>When my H interviewed for a job with the his current employer, in 1992, the CEO that he interviewed with asked his SAT scores. H said he didn’t remember and made a big deal out of finding out what they’d been – in the early 70s. When he got back to the CEO with the numbers – gleaned from high school transcript I believe – he asked the CEO why he was interested in ancient SATs from a man with two engineering degrees and an MBA. The CEO’s reply is worth noting: “I wanted to see if you’d lie.”</p>
<p>Try getting a copy of your high school transcript – it’s probably a nominal cost.
My SAT scores, subject tests (I think they were called something different back then - achievement tests?) and AP scores are all on my high school transcript. (I graduated hs in 1982)</p>
<p>Consolation–that’s exactly the reason I wanted my LSAT score. I had the same reaction – whoo hoo, some mileage out of that again! When they said they were too old & I’d have to re-take – I thought about how long it took me to make my logic (math-like) section good – and said, forget it, I’ll tutor for a place that doesn’t make me re-test (I did!).</p>
