Ap or sat ii

<p>What is more important as far as being accepted into top tier universities and state schools, AP test scores or SAT Subject Test scores?</p>

<p>Subject test scores are much more important. Most colleges specifically say that AP scores don't really affect their decisions especially because AP scores are self reported to colleges. Subject tests on the other hand play a key role in the decision process for the more competative universities which often require you take them.</p>

<p>Would you recommend taking the SAT Subject Tests along with my AP/IB tests (within a few days)?</p>

<p>Yes, take the subject tests when they're fresh in your mind.</p>

<p>I'd modify that statement. AP test scores are important for colleges too, and have long been asked about by the top colleges. See </p>
