Do Subject SAT Test play an important role in getting Admission in any colleges?

<p>I wanted to take SAT subject test since my scores on SAT reasoning test are not that good but I wanted to give SAT subject tests a shot too. Is it worth it?
here's what I want to take:
1. Math 1
2. Math 2
3. Bio</p>

<p>Sat subject tests do play an important role in college admissions. If you are taking Math II then I would not take Math I, since it is general consensus that colleges would rather view Math II scores.</p>

<p>Math Level 2 is, arguably, easier (though more advanced) and has a much nicer curve. I recommend avoiding Math Level 1.</p>

<p>To answer your question, some schools consider SAT Subject Tests. Very few schools require them, typically only the most competitive colleges.</p>

<p>Check on Collegeboard to see if the colleges you are considering require/recommend SAT Subject tests. </p>

<p>I’ve heard that Math I can be difficult to score well on. Math II and Bio should be good, as long as you possess the skills for Math II and have prepared for Bio. </p>

<p>I would suggest that you try to improve your SAT score, because a decent/good score on subject tests will still not make up for a bad SAT score.</p>

<p>Unless you’re applying to schools like NYU where you can submit SATII’s in lieu of the SAT, the subject tests are not that important. I would not have taken them if I had known that NYU changed it’s standardized testing policy lol. IMO, if you can score 700+ on them, then go ahead, take them and send them. </p>

<p>And most of my friends took Math I because it tested easier math than Math II but I wouldn’t know. Math and I do not get along too well. We have an uneasy truce.</p>

<p>I concur. I don’t know jack squat about matrices and skipped all three of those questions on the exam (in addition to several others) and still came out with a score that satisfied my purposes. </p>

<p>And yes. Subject Tests, for the schools that require them, are used in the admissions process. However, if you are applying to schools that do not require them, save yourself the trouble (unless they can be used for other purposes, like placement).</p>
