750 on French with Listening. Should I retake?

<p>I just got my French with Listening SAT II score of 750 today. I was disappointed, as I only got one question wrong on the College Board practice test, and that would have given me a solid 800. I heard a lot of people say this year's test was easier than the one in the practice test, a statement I completely disagree with; I guess that's why I lost the points. Unluckily, my school French education just didn't cover a lot of the vocabulary on this one.</p>

<p>I'm hoping to get into HYP, and if not those, then other Ivy Leagues and the equivalent (top 20 colleges). Although I'm not majoring in French, I love it and feel that the score doesn't really reflect my skills, since I only found out about the exam two weeks before I took it.</p>

<p>Which of these is the best option?
1) Retake the same test next November when I'm a senior. (Would Score Choice let me send the highest score only?)
2) Take the regular French SAT II in a few months and only send that score. (But will colleges think it's weird if they don't use Score Choice and they get both types of French Subject Tests?)
3) Don't worry about it and move on.</p>

<p>I'm planning to take the USH, Lit, and Math 2 Subject Tests as well, and I expect to score higher on them because I'll be preparing much further in advance. So what do you think? Should I just leave the 750 as it is, especially since I'm a non-native speaker?</p>

<p>dont worry about it. language subject tests are rare if it is from anyone other than a native speaker so you already stand out. And if they do see the 750-800 jump they will think you might be too number obsessed. And that is if you increase. if your score stays the same then they’ll just lol. And you’ll be mad cuz you spent time studying.
Don’t bother taking a bunch of subject tests unless you wont have to prep much for them. It is better to devote that time to EC’s. (they go sooooo far. especially if you can be like a recruited athlete and stuff)</p>
