So, I signed up and took the SAT 1 through collegeboard.com, then promptly forgot my password when it came time for registering for the SAT IIs. Being the lazy bugger that I am, instead of contacting CB I simply created a new account and registered for SAT IIs with that. I thought it wouldn't matter if I spelled my name the same way, but of course, I wrote my name slightly differently in each (wrote out my middle name in one, wrote the initial only in another or something along those lines). So now, I have two accounts, one with an SAT II writing score and one with an SAT I score. Now, obviously, what I *should* do is call "the board" and get this situation rectified, but what just occured to me is that hypothetically, I could pick and choose which scores to send to colleges since I have 2 different accounts, right? Hmm, devious.

I didn't give it. I don't actually have scores that I want to hide, nor do I think I'd do it if I actually did want to hide my scores, but now that's it's been done, I'm intrigued

Wait so if u want to hide your scores of a previous SAT you could do so by making a new account?

Ah so maybe they check it periodically or something, its only been about a month for me. Interesting, though.

We can do that? I really don't mind losing the record of my scores so far and starting off on a clean slate.
