I know when the OAT was on paper you could get it re-scored, but can you on the computerized version? I recently took my OATs and I thought I did really well on some sections and I actually did the worst! I am not sure if the computers could have errors in calculating, but I was really confident about it. Would anyone have advice? Has this ever happened to anyone? Thanks so much for any help..

Hi, if you feel strongly that the score could have been wrong, I think it couldn't hurt to check into it. 🙂 What do you have to loose? If you check it out and nothing changes, then you will at least have your same score. Don't get me wrong though...it is unlikely (not impossible) that there was a mistake being that it is computerized. At least you can rest knowing you have at least followed your gut, instead of wondering if it could have been different.
In some of the other threads previously I remember someone mentioning that an error was made on the test (ie, it was compared to another version of the test) and as a result his/her scores were very low. So it is worth a shot to look into it (call the testing center and explain your situation). These things can and have happened...
Good Luck
