<p>you might wanna send in a sample of your music...also, if you do ed 2, does wash u take the janueary sat 2's? because you might want to go ahead and sign up for writing, which is easy...or any other sat 2 test you think you'll do well on</p>

<p>I am pretty sure you'll get in ED II.</p>

<p>k, sorry to change my position, but i dont think sat 2's will do anything...you'll get in ED II based on your other stuff, so i wouldn't take the extra test...sorry about my previous post</p>

<p>Thanks for replying nngmm and Sat908. I'm hoping SAT II's won't do anything, I guess they're just important for the merit scholarships, so I'll be taking them in January. Sending a sample of my music is a good idea, but I don't even know if the admissions officers will listen to it at all. </p>

<p>Thanks again..and any other opinions?</p>

<p>I would say that SAT II will only help, it won't hurt if you haven't taken them.</p>
