<p>Hey guys,</p>

<p>I'm applying to Cornell and I recently got an email saying they're missing my science SAT subject test. Problem is I never took a science SAT II. I only recently discovered it was a requirement for the Engineering School. </p>

<p>Do you guys have any advice? Or perhaps a similar problem?</p>

<p>I know I meet the requirements for the Arts and Sciences School, but is it too late to switch?
I'd appreciate any input.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>i think you might wanna speak with the school and explain ur situation. maybe if ur rly strong in everything else, they’ll overlook the science? maybe a science ap score? but sorry, im not sure.
did u put arts and science as ur second choice? but it also requires an essay…
good luck!</p>

<p>Bluntly put, I think you might be screwed. I would just talk to the admissions, but I think this was sort of your responsibility to know you needed to take w/e tests you needed.</p>

<p>Friend had the same problem and he tried switching his college, but the under grad office wouldn’t let him. Luckily he took the ACTs which made up for it</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>does taking the ACT make up for not taking the SAT Sci II test?</p>

6

<p>Yes, if you take the ACT you do not need to take SAT subject tests.</p>

<p>hmm, that is contrary to the OP’s stmt that subj tests are req’d for engineering.</p>
