Transcript

Your SAT score is wrong. The College Board just announced that they are going to be subtracting 20 points from every single SAT score because of a grading mistake. Basically, during the math section, there was a question that so many students were confused and after the test, a lot of them reported it to the College Board and they realized that the question was wrong. The only fair way to fix this is to just take 20 points off from every single student so that it counts as if everyone got it wrong. Now, of course, this is awful news, but I want to tell you how they did say in this email that they are going to have a specific way that students can actually get those 20 points back. Do that is by realizing this was just an April Fool's joke.
