In the past, I have made a few oblique references about Real SAT tests that are available.
I was made aware of this by a friendly person named Ashley. She should get the credit for uncovering the service at CB.
Here is a copy of letter that I have sent a few weeks ago to the College Board. You can buy the tests for 400 cents each. Yep, that is 4 dollars. There are a few additional tests for sale but they were disclosed in the past in the various books or online. The tests come with the answer key.
I did send them the money and the tests arrived about 10 days later. I wanted to make sure that it worked before posting the lead on the boards.
Writing and sending them a check is the only way that seems to work. They do not take credit cards when ordering and calling them on the phone does not seem to work. You end up in a bulk sales department and you would need to buy 11 tests of EACH. Caveat Emptor.
Finally, a few weeks ago, there was someone selling a few tests for 13.00. I believe that several were different and came from India. I did not buy any of them but if you want a "complete" collection, you may want to scroll down and check message from about one month ago.
Hope this helps for an overdose of SAT

well Xiggi... I knew you would post this sooner or later...
I was wondering when the rest of the people here would start to catch on. Thanks a lot for the info, I fully attribute my performance on last weeks exam (I think I scored 1550++) to you... Thanks a million...
I am sure the rest of CC will be as thankful as I am!!

Hey Xiggi- did they release the may 2003 administration too?
Ps- i'm drooling.

I don't understand why you would need more than what's in Real SATs....
| By Xiggi (Xiggi) on Wednesday, June 11, 2003 - 06:37 pm: Edit |
Hey Xiggi- did they release the may 2003 administration too?
I am pretty sure that they will update the list with May 2003.
May I suggest that you simply add a second check for 4.00 and ask them to add it, in case they make it available now. It was not listed when I ordered my list.
Eurostar~
You no NOT need them but it does help if you use the old test to practice.

Check payable to College Board right?

btw Xiggi, all you have to do to get the exams is just mail in a list of the exams that you want to purchase and a check? (i have to admit, this seems almost too good to be true)

xiggi- i have one last question, did you already take the oct 1999, oct 2000, and Jan 1998 exams from some tutor/received them from older students or are these exams not available for purchase? (seeing that you didn't list these exams in your letter/order them)
i'm sorry for bothering you
| By Lateralus (Lateralus) on Wednesday, June 11, 2003 - 08:25 pm: Edit |
wait so let me get this straight, are the tests that xiggi listed tests that are NOT included in the 10 real sats book but available for purchase?
| By Xiggi (Xiggi) on Wednesday, June 11, 2003 - 08:49 pm: Edit |
Okies, let me try to answer the questions:
1. You make a check payable to College Board for $4.00 per test you're ordering.
2. You do NOT have to order all 13 tests. Pick the ones you like and send them 4 bucks per test.
3. The tests were ALL the ones they were offering that had not been published in the various versions of 10 Real Sat or in the online versions they occasionally offer. I checked the list and only ordered what had not been published. That is the way it came to 13.
4. The only tests I have are the ones they published in Version 2 and Version 3, plus the test that was offered online to compensate for the snafu in printing Version 3 and these 13 tests. I do not have any of the tests that came via India and were sold for 13.00. I do not have the 98 and 99 and 2000 October tests.
5. It is not a June's Fools. I ordered the tests and received them without any problems. And you can tell from the post of Montydsw11 that it worked for him too. I deliberately waited a while to make sure that it did work and that CB was still shipping the disclosed tests. I cannot guarantee how long they will ship older tests, but I can assure you that they did 3 weeks ago.
6. I first thought to try to scan all the tests and put them on a website for all to see. Then I realized that ETS/CB would probably not like the idea and I rather not mess with Big Daddy. Also, at 4 bucks per copy, it is not worth trying to duplicate them and ship them. This is an example where the price is right
7. If someone does have older tests that were not listed, feel free to send me an email at Xiggi@aol.com. I would be glad to send my addy
Thanks

on which site are the online tests????.....and do they send SAT-II tests also????
| By Xiggi (Xiggi) on Thursday, June 12, 2003 - 10:49 am: Edit |
It is on the College Board site.
You can find the link by scrolling down a bit. It has been given several times. It is also printed in the 3dEdition of 10 Real SAT where the printing error occured.
I do not know about SATII.

Xiggi i've enjoyed reading your post for the past two months. You are an honest and caring person, you always helped curiousone with SAt questions. I trust you and will proceed to order the SAt's thank you!!. Practicing with 10 Real SAt's i great, but being able to take new one's is even better.
| By Xiggi (Xiggi) on Thursday, June 12, 2003 - 01:03 pm: Edit |
I just checked the link for the May 2002 test and it is still there.
However, I would not wait too long to download and save it. It may be taken down without notice.

Physicsstud~
Thanks for the nice comment.
I agree that practicing with the Real Sat tests is beneficial. That's why I like to see as many in "legal" circulation as possible. I probably could have posted the list earlier but I wanted to make sure that CB would honor the orders.
I also believe that trying to help someone with answers is the best way to learn. In fact, you just help yourself because you have to be sure of your answers.
When I started preparing for the tests, I came here often with silly/dumb questions and people helped me tremendously. As soon as someone explains it, it becomes crystal clear.
That is te beauty of this site.

Xiggi, are you sure that the address is
The College Board
SAT Department-Disclosed Tests
45 Columbus Ave.
NY, NY 10023
instead of the address in 10 Real SATs in Forrester Center, VA?
Also, do you have to provide any proof that you took the SATs on any of those 13 dates that you listed in order to receive those SATs?
| By Xiggi (Xiggi) on Thursday, June 12, 2003 - 06:04 pm: Edit |
TCB has many different addresses. I am positive that it is the address they want you to use.
I would recommend using the same address since that is what I used and it worked fine.
Try it!
| By The007expert (The007expert) on Thursday, June 12, 2003 - 06:06 pm: Edit |
Xiggi, I have the Jan. 2003 SAT if you need to have it. BTW, can you post a couple of screenshots of the SATs you received so that I can verify that you really received those SATs in the mail?
Will the College Board also take cash?
| By Xiggi (Xiggi) on Thursday, June 12, 2003 - 06:10 pm: Edit |
Sorry I did not read the second question.
No, you do not need anything to order the tests listed. You can order as many as you want. I copied my letter in its entirety. There was nothing else in the letter (except my check).
I only took 2 SAT1 tests in my life. The first one was in 7th grade and then the one last week. Thank God that I did not have to take all the tests listed
| By The007expert (The007expert) on Thursday, June 12, 2003 - 06:14 pm: Edit |
I'm not sure if I can convince my mom to write the check to TCB because she might not believe me.
If TCB accepts cash, then I'm in luck.
Do you think that I would be able to get the May 3rd and 4th 2003 SAT editions by using this service also or do I have to use Question and Answer? I am wondering because I didn't take the May 3rd or 4th versions of the SAT and I want a copy of both.

Humm??? Not sure why you would need the screenshots. Why would I make up a story that I purchased the tests? It is not like I am asking anyone to send ME any money. You are dealing directly with CB. Oh well, here is the answer.
1. I do have the January 2003 test since it was the first one listed. I did send them 52 dollars... remember.
2. Screenshots? I have the physical booklets but nothing online. It would take me a while to scan them and then look for someone to host the image. If you have your January 2003 test, you can compare the number. The booklet says Form Codes YQ, WX. It is a Question-And-Answer booklet that is blueish.
3. They ask for checks only. If you do not have a checkbook, I think you could buy a money order about anywhere.

I have the Jan. 2003 booklet that says Form Code LS, so I know that I did purchase QAS for the January 25, 2003 administration.
| By Xiggi (Xiggi) on Thursday, June 12, 2003 - 06:27 pm: Edit |
The007expert~
I think that your mom should be easily convinced to write a check to College Board as opposed to anyone else. It is their test after all.
Also, she has nothing to lose. They will only cash the check IF they send you the tests.
You could always order 1 or 2 tests and convince yourself. Also, in the same letter, you could ask about the May tests. I would assume that they would make them available by now.
That is about all I can add.
| By Xiggi (Xiggi) on Thursday, June 12, 2003 - 06:31 pm: Edit |
Mine is a different form.
The first question is :
If 3x + 9 = 5x + 1, what is the value of x?

2
3
4
8
| By Sirmoreau (Sirmoreau) on Thursday, June 12, 2003 - 06:48 pm: Edit |
Well, if someone sent me a check - I would cash it and move on, without sending out any tests. But Xiggi, I guess I can believe you. Although i'm not auctually going to use this service. You should make them into PDF files and send them to those who want them..or put them on Kazaa..in your shared folder titled SAT test, so we can all download them..file-sharing baby ;)

Lol. Kevin!
I SHOULD spend the next week and scan 520 pages, create 13 pdf files of about 2 Megs, host them somewhere, and worry that there would be 520 warning about illegal reproducing of ETS documents. That sounds like a winner to me
It would be one thing to copy a few tests but posting copyrighted material on the web? You do it!
On a more serious note, I am DONE giving additional explanations regarding the availability of the tests. If someone doubts the veracity of what I say, so be it. I do not get this at all. It is hard to believe that one wont trust The College Board.
All I know, is that I -and the few others I shared this with previously- have the 13 tests I listed in my first posts and that they were acquired directly from TCB. I ordered ALL the tests that had not been published previously. The only new ones should be the ones that came after January 2003.
Lastly, if anyone does have older unpublished tests, I am willing to exchange with some I have. I still think it is better to pay 4 bucks to TCB, but if that appeals to someone, send me an email at Xiggi@aol.com
Gracias!

Hi, I'm Ashley, Xiggi is telling the absolute truth, I received ALL SATs I ordered. Call CB to verify!! Order them or not, it's up to you. Xiggi was nice enough to post this info for you guys you should thank her/him.

How did you pay for shipping and handling? I know you send four dollars for each test, but they have to send back the tests and how did you pay for that.

As I said before, all the credit should go to you. I just followed the trail you blazed for all of us.
I hope you did very well on the test.

Xiggi, in response to your statement:
"If someone doubts the veracity of what I say, so be it. I do not get this at all. It is hard to believe that one wont trust The College Board."
One may think that you are just telling lies about how to get those disclosed SAT Tests. You refuse to post any physical proof that you received those tests. In fact, I could have said the same thing you have said about these disclosed SATs that one can get these tests by sending in a check to The College Board. But if there were a couple screenshots of the tests that you claim to have, then your claim will be more valid to all.
| By Xiggi (Xiggi) on Friday, June 13, 2003 - 01:10 am: Edit |
The007expert~
This is getting unbelievably irritating.
I very rarely get annoyed but I am getting really close to getting quite upset about this.
Are you telling me that I HAVE to validate my claim to have certain tests?
Have you ever thought that it was insulting in the first place to even ask for those damn screenshots?
It is not like I was peddling some snake oil on Ebay. I posted my own experience and thought that it would help a few people getting additional material. And the result, is to be called a liar!
If you would have read the thread a bit more carefully, you would have noticed that Montydsw11 acknowledged teh help he got. Why do you think that is? That is because he ordered the tests based on the same information.
I did not mind providing additional information to help you out. It took me 10 minutes to dig out the January 2003 test and I went as far as reposting the first question of the test.
What pisses me off if that you deemed necessary to justify your position with a BS about my refusal to post screenshots as YOU requested. And this was even after Ashley posted to confirm what I said.
I still fail to understand what my motivation would be to post false information. Do you think that The College Board would send me 50% of all the checks they would cash?
Now, let me quote something you posted:
>>I could have said the same thing you have said about these disclosed SATs that one can get these tests by sending in a check to The College Board.<<
What did I exactly say that you knew before I posted? You probably never heard about the availability of disclosed tests before I posted. Yet, you feel necessary to criticize my lack of response to your request to provide a tangible proof. You are some kind of ungrateful individual.
In insight, I probably would have been better off to keep the information private or worse, pretend that the tests were ultra rare. Heck, I probably could have sold a lot of them for 10 bucks each under false pretenses.
Yet, I did the honorable thing. I posted the information and directed everyone to the source of the tests.
What do they say about good deeds?

Argh! My dad won't give me the check! He says that unless there is a phone number or website or website, he doesn't feel comfortable writing the check. I tell him it's from college board but he is too adamant.
| By Barryknoll (Barryknoll) on Friday, June 13, 2003 - 02:06 am: Edit |
I think Xiggi is probably lying. Why won't he give us proof that he has these SATs ? Plus, I checked into this. While you can purchase some tests from the College Boards, many of these are available FREE if you get old preview tests that they release every year. Just call ETS at 609-771-7600 and ask them to send you free SAT Preview Tests in Taking the SAT booklet. Also, many other tests are not available to the public.
Save your money. Xiggi is a fraud.

| By Andrew123s (Andrew123s) on Friday, June 13, 2003 - 02:53 am: Edit |
Xiggi is not lying; he told me about it about a little over a month ago and I got 11 of the 13 I ordered. (For some reason, I didn't get one of the May 2001s or the Jan 99, and I got 2 Janruary 2001s, but this is probably just a mix-up and 11 different tests is enough for me
)
The turnaround time was about a week, maybe a day more.
Barryknoll, you are right that many other tests are not available to the public. The tests that are not available to the public are the ones that do NOT have the question and answer service. All the ones that I got and that are listed in the first post are ones in which the question and answer service WAS available, and therefore they are disclosed/released tests. Notice that all the tests above are Janruary, May, October, or November. While November does not have the question and answer service, the November test they disclosed was all the way back in 1997, so the service probably worked differently then. All the tests themselves say in big letters "Question-and-Answer Service." While I have never seen a real Question-and-Answer serivce booklet, I wouldn't be surprised if these are the exact same booklets that the students who take the tests get.
Its no wonder Xiggi didn't post this information as soon as he got it. Do you people have nothing better to do than attack others?
| By Montydsw11 (Montydsw11) on Friday, June 13, 2003 - 06:26 am: Edit |
You people are fools...
Xiggi is giving you a goldmine of information (which is legit, btw) and all you can do is call him names?
And for those of you who can't get your parents to write you a check... just get a money order from a local bank.
| By Sunshine916 (Sunshine916) on Friday, June 13, 2003 - 10:24 am: Edit |
you guys are sooooo unbelievably skeptical and being dumb about this whole thing. WHY would he lie? what is the motivation in telling you all of this if it was a lie? just so collegeboard could send the check back and be like "you idiot, we dont offer that service?" like he said, its not like you're writing the check to him! somehow, i don't find that a very good motive.
xiggi is trying to be nice and help everyone out with doing their best on the SAT's and if you dont want to take his advice, then DON'T. he was just telling you something that would probably be useful.
of course, go ahead, dont order the books. then maybe you'll score lower than those of us who have, make the curve better, and then i'll get into YOUR top choice school. *rolls eyes*
Xiggi's just trying to help everyone! If you dont believe him, then don't do it. its not like he was forcing you.
don't go around accusing people until you have proof. im going to order these books ASAP and come back a week later with my success story...
bye all.

Oh my, my dear Barry Knoll. I hope that you will be able to grow up some day and use better judgment.
FYI, I am over being upset. I am simply disappointed. I know that my record will speak for itself. Over the past months, I have tred to post helpful stuff. At least, when I was not jesting with SirMoreau.
For all the people who do not believe me -and Ashley, and Monthdsw11, for that matter-, you are just hurting yourself. If you are serious about your prep, the tests will come in very handy.
For all the people who DO believe, you wont be sorry. I just hope that you will come back and post in this thread. Also, thanks to the people who have come here to post the truth.
Now, about this for a proof ...
Andrew123, send me an email at xiggi@aol.com and if you want to provide your address, I will mail you the two tests you did not get.
Jason817, same for you. I will send you 2-3 tests and give you a copy of the cancelled check. This should be sufficient to convince your dad.
Lastly, this has been a good lesson. I had planned to post a lot more duting the summer and give access to a lot of material that I have gathered in the past months. During my prep time, I made a ton of friends and build up a solid library of expensive material.
I am not bitter but I wont disclose any more information in the public board. Since I am done with the SAT after taking the June test, I guess it is a good time to wave goodbye.
Good luck to all!

Xiggi,
If you have the tests, why are you reluctant to scan three pages of any test and send them to me as proof? Is it that hard to scan three pictures and send them to me?
The reason why I asked that is that my mom needs some proof that you are telling the truth. My mom thinks that you could claim anything that you really are not.
| By Xiggi (Xiggi) on Friday, June 13, 2003 - 07:15 pm: Edit |
Because your request is utterly stupid and downright insulting.
Why would I even spend 30 seconds on that and give you some kind of personal satisfaction?
Ask you mom or dad to read this thread. Maybe they are a bit smarter than you and they might realize that at least 3 people have posted to validate what I said.
If they are really THAT worried, just ask them to send a check for 4.00 dollars and order ONE test.
By the way, have you ever thought about picking up the phone and calling The College Board in New York and ask for the Disclosed Tests Department? Or are you waiting for the other Barry Knoll imbecile to do it for you and tell you they do not exist?

007, I don't know whether scanning pages from SATs and posting them is even allowed without CB's permission. It does say on the tests that unauthorized reproduction is prohibited. Just call them and you will see that you can do this. Xiggi provided us with information; its up you you whether you use it or not, no one has to prove anything.

xiggi, you seem to have posted 2 different addresses:

New York, NY 10023-6992
(i'm assuming its the main office address)
The College Board
SAT Department-Disclosed Tests
45 Columbus Ave.
NY, NY 10023
(i'm assuming its the disclosed test department)
does it really matter which one you use? or do you prefer the latter?
i know it seems like a dumb question but i need verification.
| By Xiggi (Xiggi) on Saturday, June 14, 2003 - 12:19 am: Edit |
Jm405 ~
There are no dumb questions. The addresses are really the same but I understand you wanted to be sure.
The only difference is that the first one has New York spelled out and has the extra 4 digits in the zip. The only thing I would make sure is to spell out SAT Department - Disclosed Tests. That is the way that College Board wrote it on the email to Ashley. I used the address exactly as I copied in my first post.
I believe that College board owns the whole building.
Dwayne~
I really do not know about SAT2. The disclosed tests for the SAT1 are coming from their Q and A service. If they offer that service for SAT2, they may very well offer old tests.
What I would recommend is to write a letter to the same department and ask for a reply via email. If they have them, they will send you a list and the procedure to buy them.
Expert007~
If you still have trouble convincing your parents, you should consider writing a similar letter. Just ask them for the list of available tests or simply attach a copy of my letter and ask them to send you an updated list via email. That way you do not have to send any money and you will have your own email to show your parents. However, I am sure that you will get a quicker answer on the phone.
BTW, I do not own a scanner and I had told you that I only have the physical booklets.
Hope that closes this saga!

Xiggi, is the College Board department you talked about opened on the weekends?
| By Xiggi (Xiggi) on Saturday, June 14, 2003 - 12:25 pm: Edit |
My gut feeling is that they probably wont be open during the weekend.
You can always try but you will have better luck on Monday morning.
Good luck!

Hi Xiggi,
I trust you and thanks for telling us that.
Do they ship their tests internationally? I think there must be an extra charge for them to do that.

I am going to call the college board for confirmation. Everyone should do the same, post your college board responses.

>> I am going to call the college board for confirmation. Everyone should do the same, post your college board responses. <<
Hehe. I am sure they will be thrilled to get a call from EVERYONE.
You will accomplish the same by letting The007Expert make his call and let him confirm what he finds out.
This thing is not exactly rocket science. You will only find out confirmation that the service does indeed exist at TCB, that it still costs 4.00 per test and that the address is correct, and that you need to send a check. The only thing that may have changed since I ordered my tests is that they may have added the May Administration to the list of available tests.
I guess that the most ironic part of all of this would be that someone would start doubting the findings of The007Expert and ask him for proof when he will get his stack of tests.

Xiggi, I had my mom call The College Board. My mom confirmed that the College Board is selling these SATs. After that, my mom sent the check out to The College Board. I used to belive Xiggi was lying. But, after my mom called the College Board, I rescind my reservations I had toward Xiggi's veracity. Thanks Xiggi.
By the way, The College Board does NOT have the May 2003 Saturday or Sunday tests available for purchase through this address.

The007expert, welcome to the Club. Now, you better prepare yourself to confront a few doubters that wont believe you!
Seriously, I am glad that you came back and posted your findings. Obviously, I still think that you can have trusted me and not put yourself to all the troubles. As I said before, I had no reasons whatsoever to post a fabricated story.
For people who like to have as many tests possible, it probably sounded too good to be true. IMHO, 52 dollars for 13 tests is a lot of money but compared to the price of classes, it is still a bargain.
Have fun with the tests.

I should have ordered the January 2003 SAT through this service instead of paying $12 for the Question and Answer Service.
| By Xiggi (Xiggi) on Monday, June 16, 2003 - 07:17 pm: Edit |
Yes, but you probably would have had to wait a lot longer. I believe thay made the January tests ony available in April 2003.
That is probably why they have not released the May Administration yet. If I remember correctlym, you can buy it at 12 dollars for a period of 6 weeks after the test date.

<After reading the following post by Xiggi, I guess there isn't much of a delay for getting recent administrations wtih this address!>
There is an advantage for getting the Question and Answer service when you take an SAT vs. using this address: you get a sheet telling exactly which questions you got wrong and what difficulty level they were.
On another note, I looked at the curves for the verbal and the math. Has anyone ever seen curves as bad as those?

The007Expert
Yes, that would not surprise me. At TCB, you may get different answers from different persons.
I think that you wont have anything to lose in sending an additional check for $8.00 and request the 2 tests of May.
I think that they just added the two latest tests yesterday. However, they put it in writing on their email, so I am pretty sure that it was not a mistake.
| By Apg (Apg) on Tuesday, June 17, 2003 - 01:17 pm: Edit |
Old PSAT's might be of some use as well. IIRC, these tests are always released to students.
Any word on whether or not the CB sells these as well?

you want to prove that you're legit? I took the jan. 03 SAT and got the q&A thing, so just tell us all what the 3rd question of section 5 is or something and I'll verify
| By Yorkhigh (Yorkhigh) on Thursday, June 19, 2003 - 06:33 pm: Edit |

I got the 13 SATs you mentioned in your letter from CB today (less than a week). Thanks for your help.
| By Xiggi (Xiggi) on Thursday, June 19, 2003 - 10:19 pm: Edit |
That is just great Yorkhigh. I assume that you ordered them right away and did not wait for me to earn the necessary "legitimacy" and seal of approval from this board.
Ghewitt~ This is the answer and proof from Xggi:
Section 5, Question 3 is a sentence completion . . .
Far from an amicable interaction, posting in the College Confidential board is more combative than cooperative.
Does Xggi got that right, Ghwewitt04?
| By Yorkhigh (Yorkhigh) on Friday, June 20, 2003 - 06:06 am: Edit |
Xiggi,
I was looking for this information for some time. Surprisingly nobody talks about the availability.
All they talk about is 10Reals. Mailed my letter next day after your post. Thanks again.
| By Dont (Dont) on Friday, June 20, 2003 - 08:54 am: Edit |
Hi Xiggi,
Thanks for the information. Do you have any idea if it's the same price USD $4 for each copy even for international mailing? I am in asia, and really interested in getting those copies.
| By Xiggi (Xiggi) on Friday, June 20, 2003 - 01:50 pm: Edit |
I know that TCB recently sent 15 tests to CHINA for the same price of 4 dollars per test. The person who ordered the tests did not have to pay extra for the postage.
I would encourage to send your letter with your order and make sure to add your email address in case they have a question about the mailing. But again, they sent tests to China 2 weeks ago without hesitation.
Hope this helps.

~ Ghewitt
That is OK. I hope you liked the modified answer to your question. It seemed pretty appropriate in my case. Anyhow, if anyone had paid attention, I did provide the first question of the first section as early as on June 12th as a proof to The007Expert. But that is all ancient history now. I am glad that people will be ordering the tests and find them as useful as I did.
This was my post on 6-12
>>Mine is a different form.
>>The first question is :
>>If 3x + 9 = 5x + 1, what is the value of x?
>>Answers:
>>1
>>2
>>3

Almondjoy~
You do NOT need to call them or email them. I posted the exact copy of their last email dated June 16th, 2003. You would just get the same email and spend some on Long distance phone. Just write a similar letter and list the tests you want and make a check out for 4 dollars. I would definitely buy the most recent ones as they keep on introducing new twists in the tests. However, at 4 bucks per tests, why not buy them all. Also, I am sure that some friends may like to see them. It makes an ideal Bithday gift. J/K!!!
The tests do come with the same answers sheets as in the 10 REAL SAT book. I have not seen any "answers + explanations" yet on any websites and I doubt that you ever will. There simply wont be enough of them in "circulation". Hopefully, this forum may come handy to post questions about puzzling questions.
~The007expert
No, they wont send a confirmation email but they are shipping pretty fast. I would say that it takes 7-10 days from the day you sent the check.

I do not know anything about the availability of Sat2 tests. I would encourage interested parties to call the number I posted earlier or send an inquiry to the same address. There is nothing to lose but a bit of time.
Regarding the May 2003 test:
I saw a post that said that the test that is currently offered as practice on the College Board is partly or completely the May 2003. I downloaded the test but it does NOT have any date references. I do not have the May 2003 tests. I am planning to order and "complete" my collection. I am now done with the test but my younger sister will start preparing next year. So it is not a total waste.
Could someone -maybe Jason817- check it and compare with the May 2003 QandA?
Here is a link to the page with the practice test:
http://www.collegeboard.com/student/testing/sat/about/publications.html
On the same page, there are a few examples of SAT2 that are worth checking out.

The007expert ~ One may think that you are just telling lies about how to get those disclosed SAT Tests. You refuse to post any physical proof that you received those tests. In fact, I could have said the same thing you have said about these disclosed SATs that one can get these tests by sending in a check to The College Board. But if there were a couple screenshots of the tests that you claim to have, then your claim will be more valid to all.

To Barryknoll ~ I think Xiggi is probably lying. Why won't he give us proof that he has these SATs ? Plus, I checked into this. While you can purchase some tests from the College Boards, many of these are available FREE if you get old preview tests that they release every year. Just call ETS at 609-771-7600 and ask them to send you free SAT Preview Tests in Taking the SAT booklet. Also, many other tests are not available to the public.

I do not have an email to recommend. They only email you when they need to clarify something about your order or let you know something is not available.
However, check Sunshine's post from a few days ago. I would encourage you to call that Johnny dude and get the information regarding the date of shipment of your order. I think it should be the same number your mom called.

Magic~
I think it was case of an old adage backfiring... When it is too good to be true, it probably is!
The reality is that countless posts by people looking for old tests remained unanswered in the past. The only option seemed to have a connection to some tutor/classes in India. We still do not have the 35+ old tests that they seem to have in India but for an investment of less than 100 bucks we are at about 25. And the bonus is that all our copies are totally legal and legit.

Xiggi what is the e-mail of the SAT Department—Disclosed Tests?Or can you tell me the phone number,is it (212) 713-8097 or not?Do you know if they ship the tests to Europe and if there is any kind of over charge for the international shipment?
Thank you...Xiggi

Joeybg~
I have answered all of your questions before. You may find a more detailed answer by scrolling up in this thread. But here is the summary.
1. They do ship overseas at no additional charge.
2. I do NOT have a specific email.
3. The phone number 212-713-8097 should be a good one.
And to clarify something and avoid the numerous emails I have received on the subject. NO, I do NOT sell the tests. The tests are ordered at TCB and you send THEM a check. It is really the cheapest and most secure source you'll find.
Good luck!

Thank you Xiggi .It's probably hard to answer one and the same question over and over again but there are like 120 posts and at some time I get confused...Once again thanx and take care...

Hix! It's a huge thread. I even don't bother read entirely but thanks Xiggi, you're good. Is any SAT 2 available the same way like that ?
| By Sunshine916 (Sunshine916) on Monday, June 30, 2003 - 04:55 pm: Edit |
no its not Xerox. i got an email from College Board saying that the only way you could take Real SAT II's were through the book 10 Real SAT II's.

Do you also receive the answer sheet to these tests?
| By Xiggi (Xiggi) on Monday, July 14, 2003 - 07:05 pm: Edit |
...... Do you also receive the answer sheet to these tests? ......
Yes, you get the answer sheet but NO explanations. Just like the answer sheet in the 10 Real SAT book.
| By Amylase (Amylase) on Monday, July 14, 2003 - 07:05 pm: Edit |
No answer sheet. It's the same test booklets as the booklet you will receive from question and answer service
| By Xiggi (Xiggi) on Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 08:59 pm: Edit |
My definition of "answer sheet" is the sheet with correct answers and difficulty levels.
I am prettu sure that you receive that sheet Amy

Can someone PLEASE provide me with an email address of someone who deals with this service?
I want a personalized email reply from the CB before ordering. Snail mail takes too long.
Xiggi, those tests u ordered, none of them are in 10 real SATs right?
| By Student9 (Student9) on Sunday, July 20, 2003 - 12:52 am: Edit |
And who should checks be addressed to? CB?
| By Joeybg (Joeybg) on Sunday, July 20, 2003 - 03:38 am: Edit |
Sorry but I think they don't actually have any e-mail,Or they have but they just don't seem to feel comfortable using it.I've sent 3 e-mails and no answer.But you can call (212) 713 8000.Don't forget to add (001) if you are outside US(as me).

I just got my tests.It took 19 days to ship them to Europe.Ain't bad.But it wouldn't be TCB if they didn't mess up something at the end -- I wanted the 2001 May Test but the sent me the 2002 May one,the same test available only.But after all I'm happy I recived them coz I wasnt sure if they got my check.
ANOTHER SATISFIED CUSTOMER

hey, anybody knows what test of what month/year is that one, which appears in the collegeboard 'taking the sat i: 2003-2004'publication?
| By Xiggi (Xiggi) on Tuesday, July 22, 2003 - 08:00 pm: Edit |
Not sure, Gaby.
Is that an online publication or a printed booklet? Where did you get it?
| By Gabypa (Gabypa) on Tuesday, July 22, 2003 - 08:06 pm: Edit |
printed booklet --- school, got it 2day
| By Xiggi (Xiggi) on Tuesday, July 22, 2003 - 09:05 pm: Edit |
Ah ... It would be hard to say. The tests have Form Codes on them but I don't remember the format of the booklets that go to schools. For instance Oct 2002 was Form Codes YC, YZ.
Sorry!
