New way to report SAT scores is not accepted by universities nationwide

A new feature provided by the College Board this year to give students more say over the SAT scores they send to universities has recently come under fire, as some argue that it undermines the academic value of tests and favors wealthier students.

The new “Score Choice” policy allows students to choose which SAT scores their prospective colleges see. The policy is not mandatory, and if certain students do not wish to use the feature, all of their scores will be automatically sent to the colleges of their choice.
