<p>Exactly how preferable is Math II to Math I? My real question is, I am much more comfortable with the material in Math I than I am Math II. Is it better to take the easier test and score well, or “suck it up” and take Math II. I have never taken a calculus course.</p>
<p>I have a question on score choice. Princeton’s policy is that if you are sending more than 2 subject tests, then you have to send all your scores. Is this true for all schools that accept score choice?</p>
<p>My d got her Subj Scores today 620 lit and 630 math 2. Her college counselor says to send both scores to all her schools including Northwestern, Michigan - d doesn’t want to send --will it help or hurt her chances of getting in Her SATs were 2040 each time - what do you think?</p>
<p>hi can someone respond this was my first post thanks</p>
<p>I would love to help you Bev, but I do not know enough about the admissions process. I would say that 2040 is not superb, but probably adequate for some of the schools she is applying to. Once again I am not qualified to give out foolproof advice, but if I was in her shoes I would try the subject tests again. Even if she could only raise them 50 points I think they would be worth sending.</p>
<p>Sorry if this question has been asked a thousand times before, I just had a hard time finding the answer. If I am not satisfied with scores of one of the three subjects I took on the same test day, is it ok if I send out only two of the subjects? (As long as the college supports the score choice policy, right?)</p>
<p>@ MrMustard: That is definately okay.
Ofc, one might even say that is okay if they want all the scores, because the colleges cant tell if you sent them all.</p>
<p>What would happen if we stayed for three subject tests but only filled out one answer sheet and left the other blank. Is it still cheating even of all the answers are in the test booklet, but not the answer sheet?</p>
<p>This is not true. You can select the scores that you want to send. There is an option to “unselect” any of the scores you do not wish to send. What am I missing?</p>
<p>Do top colleges prefer to see breadth in SAT Subject Tests or depth in one or two subject areas? I’ve taken the Bio M and Latin ST’s with 800’s in both, and I’m definitely taking Math II in June, but does it make a difference if I take Chem or USH for my fourth test?</p>
<p>@cherryclossom71. No it doesn’t make much a difference. But if you can take both and score well, that would be impressive</p>
<p>I have a question… do Ivy-league schools like Harvard, Princeton, Yale etc require 3 subject tests or 2…? I was looking at the Harvard Admissions web page FAQ section and it says this:
“Which SAT Subject Tests should students take? To satisfy our application requirements, applicants must take two SAT Subject Tests. Students should not submit two Subject Tests in mathematics to meet this requirement. Candidates whose first language is not English should ordinarily not use a Subject Test in their first language to meet the two Subject Tests requirement. . Applicants may wish to convey the breadth of their academic interests by taking tests in different subjects. All students are encouraged to submit additional Subject Tests (which may include one in a students first language), Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate test results, or any other evidence of the breadth and depth of their academic accomplishments.” – [Harvard</a> College Admissions § Applying: Frequently Asked Questions](<a href=“http://www.admissions.college.harvard.edu/apply/faq.html#11]Harvard”>http://www.admissions.college.harvard.edu/apply/faq.html#11)</p>
<p>But then, the Harvard Dean in 2009 said, in an interview, “Harvard requires the SAT or the ACT and three subject tests” – [Guidance</a> Office: Answers From Harvard’s Dean, Part 2 - NYTimes.com](<a href=“http://thechoice.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/09/11/harvarddean-part2/]Guidance”>Guidance Office: Answers From Harvard's Dean, Part 2 - The New York Times) </p>
<p>So… is it 2 or 3…?</p>
<p>I have a question also. I’m in my junior year and I signed up for 3 subject tests this May (Biology, Math II, and Physics).</p>
<p>When I apply to the colleges I decide to apply to, do I have to contact collegeboard and have them send a copy of my transcript to the schools? Or do I just list the scores on the CommonApp? </p>
<p>And I’m pretty confident w/ Math II, and I think I can do okay in Bio, but when it comes to Physics, I’m pretty sure an 800 is a far-away dream for me. If I do have to send it through collegeboard, are the universities going to see the Physics score too, or only the two that I want them to see?</p>
<p>bewweml: Harvard currently requires two; the only school which requires 3 is Georgetown (no school requires more than 3). Harvard used to require 3, though, so that may have been what the admissions dean was referring to in the past.</p>
<p>jeshigiu: Yes, you must have the collegeboard officially send the scores as well as report them on your application. You can have the subject test scores automatically sent with your SAT Reasoning Test scores for no additional cost. Each Score Report you pay to send to colleges includes your entire SAT I/II testing history or any portion thereof if you use Score Choice to hide them. Different colleges take different positions on whether they allow applicants to hide scores, so if you do poorly on an exam you’ll have to look at each college’s policies to determine if you are allowed to hide it.</p>
<p>What is the similarity/dissimilarity between SAT II and the AP Exams?</p>
<p>If I am currently in AP US history and AP Biology and want to take the two respective SAT II exams as well, should I buy separate books?</p>
<p>What are the best books for Biology E/M? Princeton Review and Barrons?</p>
<p>What about for Math II and AP US History?</p>
<p>For a junior taking APLA, APUSH, APChem and Honors Precalc, signing up for June SATS: SAT I or subjects? Haven’t taken SAT I yet, but seems like a good idea to take subjects while they’re still fresh? May testing is not an option.</p>
<p>Can someone tell me if preparing for the AP Chemistry and AP Biology tests this semester will provide sufficent prep to do well on the SAT subject tests in June or should one do additional prep using Sparks and PR? Thanks.</p>
<p>perazziman,If you took AP then its enough for the SAT2 because AP is more in depth that the subject test,so try to take the SAT2 just after you take the AP tests.</p>
<p>Upstreaming,I would say SAT2 as I said before,try to take the SAT2 after you took the AP test</p>
<p>What are the tricky things usually on the Bio SAT Subject Test?
how do I find the answers to them?</p>
