<p>I'm applying to CIT with 33 ACT, 4.22 GPA, top 5%, and APs in Calculus AB,BC, Chemistry, and Biology and others. For some reason i didn't take a science subject test. I took math 2 (790), USH (710), and literature (600 .. epic fail). </p>

<p>I just read that a either chemistry or biology subject test is required. However, I really don't want to take one of those. I've taken 3 honors science courses (physics, chemistry, biology) and will take 2 APs in bio and chem. </p>

<p>Basically, will they reject me because i didn't take a science subject test or will it significantly hurt my chances of acceptance?</p>

<p>Yes, you should take the test. You may need it for other engineering schools as well.</p>

<p>According to their site you need to have either Physics or Chemistry for CIT.
