Urban legend or fact?? Name on SAT.?

Question:Is it true or not that if you write/spell your name correctly on the SAT you automatically get 200 points? Has anyone tried to write it incorrectly just to see what happens? Or wrote it wrong on accident?

Answers:
Nope. You get 200 points on each part just for showing up. Thus the minimum score on the traditional two-part (Verbal & Math) SAT is 400 - even if you answer every question wrong. Your score is attached to a number, not a name, so you can spell it any way you want to and still get your 400. It might cause some confusion at whatever college you have the scores sent to, though.
You might be the first person in history to find out.
It is true you get 200 for just showing up. The name only gives them someone to acredit for the test .Good luck!
Not quite. They don't *report* any scores less than 200.
I forgot my score, they told me that I needed a no. 1 pencil to take the test all I had was a no. 2 , so I broke it in half!
