Q: Can you please explain this new Score Choice option for the SATs?
A: Score Choice was announced in June 2008 and goes into effect in March 2009. This enables students to take the SAT multiple times and/or to take Subject Tests and to selectively choose which scores get sent to colleges. You must send all section scores from a particular SAT test date. This means that you can't send just your Critical Reading score from the October test, for instance; rather, you must send all three section scores from a given test date. With Subject Tests, you can take up to three on one day and then ultimately choose to send only one or two of those tests.
But there's a catch. Colleges' policies regarding Score Choice are evolving, and some have announced they will require applicants to submit all of their scores. Schools that have announced that they will require all scores include (but are not limited to) Stanford, University of Southern California, University of Pennsylvania and Pomona College. Be sure to check the policy of each school you're applying to before making any decisions.
