… and it’s been so long since I’ve needed that information that I don’t know if I still have any paper records… (I know… that’s worth at least 200 points knocked off right there).

Is there a way to retrieve these scores from ETS? Or am I SOL?

It depends on when you took them - they’ve had varying rules on how long they keep the scores.  
[http://www.gre.org/getscore.html#oldscores](http://www.gre.org/getscore.html#oldscores) for GRE

I can’t find the SAT site - anyone else?

You might try contacting your High School. Your scores are probably a part of your school record.

I used to tutor for the SATs for years, and I thought I could figure this out, but boy, is their site hard to navigate. I think your best bet may be to find a registration form at a high school or college, and see if it has info in there.

I agree with Zig. In fact I know, because I needed my ACT scores from high school. They keep records of that stuff (test scores, immunizations, etc…) However, if you’ve graduated a while back they probably sent it to some company to get the information archived. I had to call up the company to get the info. It was free though.
