I friggen hate the College Board.

Guess what I'm doing these days? Applying to college! Guess what scores I need? My SAT score of 1930. Guess what I can't get?

Yeah, apparently College Board thinks it's funny to make it so that my password doesn't work. And as for resetting my password, well, lets just say it hates my security code. Claims it's a fake.

I'm scared. What if I can't get my scores? Do I retake the test? Fuck, then.

I wouldn't know, I go to a prestigious-ish University. I had no problems applying to it. Good luck.

Hehe... I scored 1100... But that was WAY back when it was still a 1600 cap!

Screw ETS man, the Suck Ass Test is rigged anyway. It's to keep low scorers scoring low, and high scorers scoring high!

Fuck ETS AND their stupid SAT.

Call them up and they should work it out for you. I thought the ACT was the big test for college, I never even had to take SAT's.

My condolences. But you're still too young to know of the horrors that await you when dealing with ETS (the degenerates that publish the GRE). Anyway, just call them until you get somebody to fix the problem. Don't let 'em get away with it!

Your ACT scores are tied to your SSN and student identity in general, so you're not going to have to take them again, you'll just have to get someone from customer service on the phone and get it sorted out.

It's either-or.

Funny thing, I found the page to call juuuuuuust as the line closed. So I submitted an overnight query. Answered 8:30 AM Eastern at the earliest. Means I got from 5:30 until about 7:45 to get an answer. If not, I'm checking college counselors at school for help, then calling them up.

My bad, misread the test. It shouldn't be any different. Once they confirm your identification as the person that took that specific test, it's just a matter of getting the password/security code/whatever other rings they want you to jump through. At any rate, you won't need to retake it if you go through the necessary steps.

Oh, that's not SAT, that's SAT II, or am I just getting old and don't remember which is which?
I did an SAT and SAT Subject Tests.

Don't know much about the testings scales and systems anymore.

All I can say is never go to an out-of-state for-profit school, unless you really like spending triple the average degree worth and impending loan defaults.

So that's what you young whipper snappers call it these days.
No, right now I'm calling it a load of shit.
