taking someones SATs for them, for a fee

[Voltron87]

Someone just asked if I would be interested in taking the SATs for a friend of theirs, for a fee. The person who is getting me in touch is a person I trust, I trust them personally and they have good judgement. The person who is interested in paying me has $$$ and is legit. I am very qualified to do this, I would definitely satisfy the score they need and would treat it seriously and prepare. I am also qualified because I am a smart guy and have common sense, etc, and I have become a gambler at heart. So I have the score ability and the right mindset to do this.

questions for you:

1. How much would you charge for this? Assume the person paying is wealthy.

2. Any other advice? I can't think of any specific questions.





The funny part about this is that when I took my SATs, I did not give a [censored]. not at all. no preparation, i just mailed it in. I did well. But if I did this I would take it seriously, prepare, and even be somewhat nervous. thats just interesting to me.

Don't they check ID? I assume a fake...

Also, I'd charge $1,000 if you can give them 1400+ score. It may be worth more, depending how dumb they are.

Way more. People spend over a grand on SAT review classes. IIRC a private tutor from Princeton Review gets 150 an hour
By the way SATs are no longer out of 1600 but of 2400. They have a writing section now.

The high school does not get any hand written portions of your test, they only get your scores, if that. And how were you planning on the whole having to show photo id thing? Because even if it was a fake, i'd assume the fake would be from a different state therefor making it hard to explain why Joe So and so from 123 fake street California is showing up with an Arizona ID. But if you can get around it, hell yeah I'd do it.

Maybe you should ask a lawyer about what laws you would be breaking and how severe the punishment could be?

I'd say charge a big fee, then even bigger based on the score that you get, and how good it is, maybe a clause having something to do with "if you get caught"

I'm pretty sure any contract that deals with illegal activity isn't valid.

if im posting this, it should be apparent that i have grappled with the legal and ethical consequences in my mind and am ok with it. for various reasons i can't list, lets say the legal thing is relatively low risk.

and if any professional poker players want to debate the ethics of this, i would think about the people you win money from. this is a question i do actually grapple with, and a lot of the time i dont feel so great about it. but the SAT thing i have no real problem with.
