Can only take one: SAT or SAT Subject Tests?

Test Preparation
1

December 5th is my last chance to take the SATs. I’'m an international student and I started the application process really late.

I have taken the SATs before, but didn’t do as well as I’d hoped. I got a 1470, which is really not great for schools I’m hoping for (Harvard/Yale, pipe dream I know ?). I haven’t taken the SAT subject tests.

My question: On December 5th, should I retake the SAT or take the SAT subject tests?

Thanks everyone, I really appreciate your help. You guys are the best.

Prioritize the SAT over the subject tests. Your score is very good already, but getting it over the 1500 mark would make you a more competitive candidate.

SAT is much more important than Subject Tests.
