I just screw up my IIc and today.
Can I cancle my score individual? I also took PHY
I think I have to send every score I have to the college. I have no chose in this year. My question is, is it better let the college see my score has been cancled or just low grade.What is the consequence to cancle the score?

did u mean "cancel" and "choice?" I hope you did not take the Writing test, because if you did, then you screwed that one up as well. I am sorry, but I cannot be 100% sure in answering your question, so I will refuse to tell you what I think -- I don't want to ruin your future by providing incorrect information.

Dude, RK:

YES FOR THE LAST TIME: YOU CAN CANCEL AN INDIVIDUAL SCORE! If you still don't believe anybody about this call Collegeboard themselves and ask them!

Wake up. If you cancel the score, they will not see it. Grab a dictionary and look up "cancel."

Hello, I took the SAT 1 a month ago, when I was really sick, and I really want to cancel it now. I know it's too late, and it's my own fault that I forced myself to take the test, although I was under a bad health condition. However, if my physician can prove that I was ill, is there any chance to cancel my score?

i dont think so... but if there was some irregularity during the test, which there usually is (even a small thing), then just fill out their online form. i did that long time ago just to see what they would do.. well, they screwed things up by delaying my score, but at least now i know what happens -- they give u the following options:

cancel the test
keep the test on your record
get a full refund for another test you plan to take

so you could choose the first option...

Hi, I was very sick as well during the SAT, and would now like to cancel the score...(reconsidered). What kind of irregularity do you think I could say contributed, (I don't want to get in trouble)... What did you say quarky, and what was your score, and what was your final result?

Thank you

if someone is unhappy with an Ap score can they cancel it after they receive it? Just wondering in advance.

I did fill out that online form. But I didn't get any reply yet. How many days later did you get their reply, quarky? Or had I better talk to my highschool dean about deleting that score? Coz I already got the score (which was very bad indeed), and that score has been saved in the school. It might sound impossible to cancel it NOW, HOWEVER, anyone can get sick on the test day, and still force oneself to take the test, and receive a bad score,- but in this case, you didn't get a bad score coz you're stupid, but coz you were sick! It would be absolutely unfair, if the school sent that bad score to your university. That would be so inhuman. Anyone can get tempted by the IMPORTANCE of the SAT, and force oneself to creap to the test center in spite of one's sickness. Getting tempted is just a human nature. Or do they expect us to be like some ascetics that don't get tempted at all? I don't think so.-Oh, yes. I WILL make them delete my score! Whether it sounds possible or not! In the worst case I will sue them..., well, that might hurt my reputation greatly, but, by any means, I won't let them send the bad score.

No, you need to cancel your AP scores before you leave the test room. At least, that's what I've always been told after my AP tests. I was also under the impression that you couldn't cancel an SAT unless you did it before you left the testing center. Apparently though, I appear to be wrong about that.

According to my booklet, you need to cancel by June 16th. I believe it will appear as if you never took the AP test to colleges, but that will look iffy.

Does anyone know if you can retake the AP test and how that will show up?

why cancel the AP score? if u dont want colleges to see it, dont send it. its not automatically sent to colleges

By Kalitiha (Kalitiha) on Monday, March 10, 2003 - 11:57 am: Edit

Well, it's sent to the one college of your choice. You can retake the test, and I think that both scores will show up. Although, that would be great if only the highest score showed up.
