Clarification on Sending SAT II Scores

Test Preparation SAT Subject Test Preparation

<p>Hello all,</p>

<p>So this Saturday I'm planning on taking the Bio M and the World History SAT II Tests. I've taken both AP Bio and AP World History, and I think I did well on both AP exams (probably 5s). However, I haven't had a lot of time to review for the SAT II, and history is my weakest subject. I've been considering not taking the World History Exam. and just doing Biology.</p>

<p>I'm pretty sure I can score >700 on the Bio, but probably not much better than 650 on the World History. Should I still take the WH test?</p>

<p>I understand that College Board offers you the choice to send only the scores you want, but I've read that Stanford requires you to send all of your scores. I've been wanting to go to Stanford all my life, so would taking the WH exam and doing badly on it jeopardize my chances?</p>

<p>Your input is greatly appreciated, and I hope someone can come up with a good answer to my dilemma. Thank you.</p>

<p>Anyone have any ideas?</p>

<p>Have you taken practice tests for both? If possible, find a CollegeBoard practice test/practice questions for them both and just do them tonight to get a feel for the test and for how you’d do.</p>

<p>I’ve been scoring regularly in the 700s in Biology according to the Sparknotes Prep, but they don’t have a practice test for World History. I answered the 10 sample questions available on the College Board website, but I don’t think that gives a broad enough prediction of my WH scores.</p>
