Cancelling Scores

j_j_26 · 2026-09-23T07:59:39Z

How bad will it look to have two cancelled scores in a row? I paid for score preview for both attempts. I already cancelled my June score but I did not feel great about my September test either so I think I might need to cancel once its released. I definitely should not have taken the June test after only two weeks of studying but hindsight is 20/20. At the time I felt like I should see what the test is like while its still online but looking back I don't think it was the best choice. And worst case, if my third attempt is not satisfactory either, would it be better to keep the score or cancel again? I'm aiming for T14 so I'm not sure where the trade-off between cancellation and low score stands. At what point is it better to have a score albeit it being unsatisfactory and at what point is it better to take the candidate cancel on the score report?

Score preview/ cancelling scores does not ever look good. Thats like the consensus among deans of admissions and admission officers. Just think about it. A person can take 5 tests, you currently took 2, canceled 2, and now you might cancel 3 which means you are going to take 4 or 5 tests in total. 2 cancels already look bad, 3 looks even worse.
