<p>I have taken 2 subject tests already. I took the bio in 9th grade and recieved a 720. I took chem in 10th and recieved a 720 as well. I plan on taking one more test this year as a junior and i was wondering if it would be ok to take physics. I think i can do pretty well on it because i took a practice test and did well. Would taking 3 science tests look bad to colleges. I do plan on majoring in something that has to do with science so I'm not sure if i should take a different test. My first choice in colleges right now is Georgetown. I was also wondering if on the physics test there is a reference table or sheet with formulas becasue it didnt look like it in the book i bought. ANy suggestions or opinions would be awesome</p>
<p>I don't believe you get a reference sheet of any kind on the physics sat 2. Everything you need to know (constants, sin/cos values) are provided in the problems if necessary. And you have to memorize formulas.</p>
<p>You should take Math IIc if you havent already...but if you think you can score good in physics, then take it</p>
<p>u took sat II for bio w/o ap bio? what did u take in 9th grade, honors bio? </p>
<p>and u took sat II chem with only honors chem or did u take AP chem in 10th? </p>
<p>or are u just super smart that u can teach urself the advanced parts of each subject on your own? haha</p>
<p>well i took SAT II chem with just normal chem and scored 750. it's not like its required that you take honors or ap to get a good score</p>
<p>The Sat IIs are designed to only cover the high school covered material. AP=College course class (aka meaning not necessary to graduate high school).
I'm not too sure why you would need AP Bio to cover the SATII Bio.</p>
<p>my 9th grade bio class was a regents living environment class and 10th grade chem was advanced chem class but not ap or anything. Does anyone know if taking only 3 science tests is a bad idea?</p>
<p>dont take only 3 science tests (or 2 sciences and a math). The colleges see you as one-dimensional, even if that's what you're the best at. Take a math, a science, and a humanity (either english or history). Then, take whatever else you want to: language, another science, etc.</p>

<p>You're wrong. Colleges coulnd't care less about SAT II's other than that you took enough depends on college) and got a decent score.</p>
<p>I would advise against 3 SAT II's in science though still. There's nothing wrong with 2 sciences and math.</p>
<p>If you're taking AP exams in non-math/science courses then that is enough for colleges to know that you are a one trick pony. No need to take history SAT I's or lit or languages.</p>
