The situation is this:
My cousin, a HS senior, took his SAT in November and scored 2100. However, in January, the ETS (Educational Testing Service) notified him that they were questioning his scores because of the difference between his PSAT (150 ish) and SAT. He only didn't take the PSAT seriously because he didn't think it was something to worry about.
After going through the process of trying to prove his innocence (which took about a month), they concluded that his scores were still questionable. Because at this point it was already February and acceptance letters were coming out, he wasn't going to choose any of the other options (cancelling the score, letting the schools handle it, arbitration) besides retaking the test. After another month, they scheduled the test for him in the end of March. He was at this point accepted into UCSD and UCLA.
The test results came out today, 3 days before the UC deadlines for acceptance. He confirmed the scores (scored within 100 points of his original score) of two sections, but not the third in Reading. This means his score will now be 1970 (only 510 in reading). Although we don't plan on cancelling all his scores, the ETS will cancel his old score and resend this new one. We don't know how long that will take. And we also don't know what the results from the schools will be, especially this close to the deadline.
Any advice/suggestions on what to do?
Thank you in advance!
