Maybe the 8/11/18 glitch has something to do with palindrome? 
With the 4 free reports, can Score Choice be used to include some (but not all) older tests?
@evergreen5 Yes. But you cannot exclude todayâs score obviously.
My son got out quick because his test was at 7:45 i think, maybe 8. He only took 1 test, he chose not to try math again because he hasnât really studied for it and he probably wouldnât have done any better.
He might not send the results to any schools, as most donât require them, and his scores wonât help of really hurt his chances anyways.
At this point itâs looking like he might jjust apply to one school ED and be done with it. That school doesnât require subject tests.
They all report to the testing school at 7:45. Some starts soon after 8, other times they start past 9. sigh.
I am using todayâs free reports to send the regular SAT scores to schools since any previous SAT scores can be sent together for free unlike with ACT. I figure the schools that do not require subject test can just use the regular SAT scores and ignore the rest.
Which one did he take today @RightCoaster?
He took physics. He took honors Physics last year and did very well in if, taking Ap Physics this year. He bought a study guide and reviewed it the last several weeks, and he said he knew a good amount of the material but missed some questons. So thatâs why he dId he did fine. I donât think he had high expectations for the rest really, and no pressure to do great either. The studying should help him get in the swing of things for his AP class this Fall.
@carolinamom2boys Thanks! I will have D call Clemson in a week or two to see if they have all of her information.
How do you see which colleges let you self report test grades? I am looking on the Common App but donât see an option for self reporting. (maybe none of the schools on her list so far allow it?)
@momtogkc Maybe her schools donât allow self reporting yet.
Within Common App, you self-report test scores on Common App > Testing > Tests Taken > Add tests/scores.
I just looked at the admissions > how-to-apply > application-requirements > standardized-test-score webpages of each school looking for the SAT/ACT codes. That is where I found this year a lot of the following.
âWe require all applicants to submit the ACT or SAT, but you may choose to submit with or without the writing component.â
âBeginning with the 2018-2019 application cycle (students applying for Fall 2019 admission), applicants may provide self-reported SAT and ACT test scores (including Subject Tests, Advanced Placement, IB, etc.). Admitted students who decide to enroll at [our school] will be required to submit official test scores.â
âYou are free to use the College Board Score Choice option or the similar option offered by the ACT.â
S19 got his first official acceptance from UAH (and probably only acceptance, since his only other application will be to a dream/reach school). Even though I knew he was a definite since he meets the 100% tuition automatic merit level, it was still cool to see it in writing :). Theyâll send the packet in the mail with all the info and his official admitted student number, so he has to wait to apply for Honors College until that arrives.
Hope testing went well today for all the kids sitting the tests!!
@payn4ward 's first paragraph lists how to self report scores. The Common App does not specifically state which colleges allow self-reporting scores for the application. However, under the âMy Collegesâ tab, click on the college and under âApplication Informationâ then âStandardized Test Policy:â there is a hyperlink to the collegeâs website, which lists the requirements.
@payn4ward and @skieurope Thank you! I thought I was missing something on the common app. I did just check one schoolâs admissions page and found the information - that particular school doe snot allow you to self report but does allow your school counselor to send the scores instead of having to pay for them.
@skieurope On the Common App, thereâs a âtestingâ section and you report your scores there. I believe all schools see whatever you list there. NowâŠsome also need you to send the official scores and you have to look at each schoolâs testing policy to know if you have to send.
@homerdog I know. As I said, @payn4ward said how/where to enter those scores. My point was that the Common App does not state which colleges only require self-reporting for the application as opposed to those colleges that still require an official score report in advance of acceptance. However, as I explained, there is a redirect link to each collegeâs page on its admissions site that explains the details of what is required and when.
Ah ok. sorry, @skieurope .
Yeah, one just has to look at each schoolâs website to see the application âchecklistâ to see if you can self-report scores. Not complicated.
True, but at least on the Common App, the hyperlink takes you right to the appropriate page. Otherwise one is googling âCollege XYZ SAT requirements,â since starting out on each collegeâs admissions page may still require paging through multiple links to find what you want. As with many things, itâs doable, but itâs a question of doing things the easier vs. harder way. 
Iâm all for using the more efficient method.
Congrats to him @parent2one!
Iâm a little jealous - S19 will probably not have any decisions until maybe March so itâs going to be a long six months.
@eh1234 right there with you!
Congratulations @parent2one!
We will be likely undecided until March or April as well.
I am having S19 apply several rolling/EA schools so that the long winter will not be as depressing.
Did I say he submitted one application? Yay! to optional essay (read: no essay) schools. :))
@payn4ward The only reason he completed the UAH app early was because there was no essay required LOL! We most likely wonât know for sure until March, either⊠my prediction is, like most âaverage excellentâ students trying to win the lottery admission, heâll be deferred from EA and have to wait for March Regular decision.
