<p>My SAT was
CR - 690
M - 660
W - 800</p>
<p>I just took the Math II SAT and I think I did really well. I also took Lit and got a 760.</p>
<p>My college counselors say that they look at Lit over CR since Lit is harder, an they look at Math 2 SAT II over SAT Math since its harder. Is this true? If I do well (750+) on Math 2, will I be pretty much set?</p>
<p>My CC is a water polo teacher and not the best counselor…so it’s difficult for me to trust what he says sometimes, that’s why I am asking</p>
<p>I can’t comment on CR and Lit because I haven’t taken Lit but I’ve taken Math II and I can tell you that SAT 1 math and SAT Math II are two very different tests. I wouldn’t math 2 harder but it is simpler. The purpose of it is to test math concepts and that’s it. SAT 1 math however is supposed to test your ability to think critically and not fall for their traps. I don’t think Math 2 would necessarily make up for a bad regular SAT math score.</p>
<p>Not to mention that the curves are very different. Getting -6 or -7 gets you an 800 on math 2 but would barely get you a 700 on regular math, if you’re lucky.</p>
<p>Most colleges don’t even use SAT subject tests for admission. Those that require them do not view the SAT subject tests as something to be considered “over” the SAT; they are separate tests and if both SAT and subject tests are required both are important.</p>
