I can also take one or maybe two SAT subjects (literature or Italian or Latin). Suggestion?</p>

<p>Will I have to take the TOEFL if I have these scores in the ACT English?</p>

<p>You have already posted 4 other threads on this exact topic. You aren’t going to get new answers; more than likely you are going to start ****ing people off.</p>

<p>Yes, I know, I’m sorry. But you need to be nicer as well!</p>

<p>I write this one because I wanted to delete the others three because they were not in the right place! But I can’t find out how 'cause the other forums I use are different and that’s why there’s a lot of my topics! Simply because I’m not used to this and I thought two were already deleted! </p>

<p>By the way, I think writing your post in such a bad mood was unnecessary.</p>
