Engineering School? Which SAT II's?

Test Preparation SAT Subject Test Preparation

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>I'm a junior right now and I'm thinking about applying to Engineering School (perhaps specifically biomedical)? I am planning on taking two science subject tests (three would just be too much for me) in October. Are there any that are preferred (Bio, Chem, vs. Physics)?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

2

<p>Math II and
Your strongest of the 3-Bio, Chem or Physics</p>

3

<p>Math II and a science is typically the best option. </p>

<p>Math + a science is probably going to be seen as better than 2 sciences; any reason why you didn’t mention taking math?</p>

4

<p>I agree with the other posters, definitely Math II and a science (probably Bio or Chem if you’re going into bio-medical, but just take the one you’re best at).</p>

5

<p>Olin College of Engineering specifies Math I or II and a science of your choice.</p>

<p>Harvey Mudd College specifies Math II and a second Subject of your choice.</p>

<p>MIT specifies choice of one from Math I OR Math II, plus an additional test chosen from Biology, Chemistry or Physics.</p>

6

<p>Agree with the above posters, make sure to choose the science you’re best at, of course. Bonus points if it fits into the discipline of engineering you’re looking into.</p>

7

<p>MIT requires either Math I or Math II, plus a science test. I believe Caltech requires specifically Math II and a science.</p>

8

<p>UCLA, math and one science. It’s always a good idea to take Math II because it should cover the math requirement.</p>
