<p>Hi, everyone. I have a 650 for my chemistry, 590 for math2 and 630 for math1.
I don't know which maths score to send, math2 or math1, which one looks better? Should I send both of them?. Are they considered on the same scale or math2 gives you more points?
Is it better to send scores fo 3 subjet tests, than for 2?
Thank you</p>
<p>Send them all. But remember, Harvard is looking for mid 700s, unless you are an URM or highly recruited nationally ranked athlete.</p>
<p>
I am glad that 790 is not a bad score.</p>
<p>I would send all 3. They’ll evaluate the best 2. There are no “points” in weighing subject tests, but in general Math II is considered more serious.</p>
<p>Harvard is not solely basing an admissions decision because of standardized test scores. You scores yes, they can be improved but are good. I would send both the scores.</p>
<p>Please don’t be discouraged about acceptance because I can assure you that there are indviduals that have been accepted with lower scores but yet a great ECs; Hence the Hollistic Harvard Review :)</p>
<p>
Also please don’t be too encouraged about acceptance due to the 7% admission rate rate and that there are plenty of individuals with way higher scores and great ECs that have been rejected.</p>
<p>Try not to lean either way.</p>
<p>I sent in every score including all the really bad ones (which I later improved). I think you should send in every score too. I mean SAT IIs are only a part of your application and colleges look at the whole thing you present so there’s no harm in submitting all your scores.</p>
<p>just my opinion :)</p>
<p>Those scores are real low.</p>
<p>Send them all in. What were your SAT scores? If you impress in the other categories (SAT, grades, EC’s, letters of rec…) I don’t think this will kill your app.</p>
<p>I think he’s ■■■■■■■■ hard.</p>
<p>Do u mean me? It is a serious question and nobody makes u answer it…</p>
<p>thanks everyone for help)))</p>
<p>after an interview with my harvard alumni, this lady was bragging about her son who got accepted to Harvard at the cafe. So then i came up to her and asked about his status, she even had an entire folder with all possible relevant papers. She told me all about his extra c, but he had a 3.654 GPA, and only got 1750 on his SAT, with no SAT subject test. I was astonished, it seemed unreal until she got the acceptance letter out of the folder. Then she told me why he was an exception it was because he was devoted to opening a Cancer research center since his 8th grade year, with his own mission statement. He sticked with this goal until even graduation!</p>
<p>Is that for real?</p>
<p>WOW!</p>
<p>Yeah, i know, but she proved it to me, with the letter. So what i am getting from that experience is, Harvard wants determined students, who stick with one goal for a long period of time. Commitment basically. I mean a 3.6 GPA to me seems crazy low for Harvard, so to all those who say you need 3.9+, they are obviously wrong!</p>
<p>Both are low, but a 500s is a black eye. Send them both if you want</p>
<p>No diriris, a 3.9+ GPA IS mandatory to get into Harvard, BUT this one person was an exception. Have you ever heard the expression: “The Ivies are not guaranteed to anyone unless they cured cancer or something…”? This is what this one guy was trying to do, and that’s why he got in.</p>
<p>No, a 3.9 is not “mandatory”.</p>
