Bad SAT 2 Score

Applying to College
1

Hello,
I am a rising junior and I am considering applying to a school that wants 3 SAT 2s and requires that u report all the scores from the tests u took. I recently took the world history subject test and after consistently getting 700+ on practice tests, got a 610 on the real exam. I was told that as long as I’m above 600 I’m fine but I want to get another perspective. Will this bad score sink my chances at a competitive university and is it worth retaking it? For background I have a 3.8 gpa, taking ap courses (4 on gov), diverse extracuriculars/interests.

Thanks!

One low subject test won’t sink you, but if you are referring to Georgetown, they are important and it would be ideal to have 3 over 700. But if you get 700+ on two others, than the world score likely won’t be a deal breaker. You may be better off taking 3 other subjects than retaking world. They will want to see at least one math or science.
