Actually, I was told that the more recent blood sugars (about 2 weeks or so before the test) have a slightly higher effect on your A1C, although, I do not think it would skew it by THAT much. In other words, I don't think you would have gotten, say, a 13 instead of a 15 when not counting the extremes towards the end.
By the way, I was also in the 15s- 15.9 to be exact. Goodness. Haven't met too many others that were in that range.
