Deciding Which Tests To Take

Test Preparation SAT Subject Test Preparation

<p>Hi. I hope you can help me decide which subject tests to take, any information would be helpfull. Thank you. </p>

<p>I will try to keep it as succinct as possible. </p>

<p>Options: US History, Biology, Physics, Literature, Math II.
Taken: Math II score of 700.
Intended Major: Physics
Applying to: MIT, Harvard, Yale.. etc (assume schools with highest of standards.)
Dates: Taking in June, would like to not take any exams my senior year (ie in October) applying early action.
Relevant classes: AP Language, APUSH, AP Bio, Physics C, Calculus AB.</p>

<p>Here is my dilemma, my math II score is too low and I would most likely score well on biology and physics too. However, would the liberal arts schools want to see some variation? Would it be better to have a history, math and science, or does it not matter as long as you have 2 above a 750? Which look most impressive?</p>

<p>Again, please help, anything is appreciated. (Sorry if this is an all too common thread here on CC)</p>

<p>Anyone? D:</p>

3

<p>if you are urm, take any of the sciences. if you are not, take lit or better yet, a language one</p>

4

<p>I am a minority in the economic sense (questbridge) and I am a citizen of a European country, residing in the US. So as you can see, I am not entirely a “urm”. Why would it matter anyway?</p>

5

<p>Just take Math 2 in october, it’s only an hour.</p>

6

<p>They’re all an hour. No one seems to be answering the question ><</p>

<p>If you look it up, some schools at the level you’re applying for (e.g. Columbia or Princeton) require that one of your subject tests be in either Physics or Chemistry if you’re going for a BSE degree; you may as well just do the Physics subject test, along with bio if you want to and/or retaking Math 2.</p>
