So, if the question is should you hesitate to allow a middle schooler to take the SAT for fear the scores will look bad for college; the answer is no, don't worry about it.

Our local talent search, WATS, claims that those scores are also not going to show up on a permanent record, but I don't see anything on SAT's website that would support that.
