SAT Subject Test Score?

I have only taken one College Board test so far... in a few months however, that will not be the case so I would like to get this cleared up quickly. I took the Chemistry SAT in June, don't really know why, seeing as I studied the my prep book the night before the test for an hour, and the format of the chem SAT is really wierd. I am a straight A (top 5%, taking most rigorous curriculum) student, normally do very well on stadardized tests, and will be applying to very high level schools, some of which do not allow score choice (e.g Cornell). So, I am in a bit of a predicament. Since I now can't cancel my score, I was wondering whether it would just be a good idea to start a new College Board account, and start fresh from there (what I am not sure of is if this is allowed, or even possible).

Any advice on this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
 
If you're planning to go to school in the midwest, the SAT won't matter at all anyway. ACT is the important test there, and that you can take more than once - and only your highest score will count.

Only if you're applying in the west, like California, will the SAT matter. In which case, just re-take the SAT test. You'll probably do better, having tried it once. And if you don't have time, money, or desire to try again, your grades can be enough to get you in - along with things like community service, extracurricular activities, and leadership. Most schools aren't actually that difficult to get into. The harder part is scholarships.
