<p>Does Harvard still require SAT II's for freshmen? I mean, my application and all was received but I haven't been contacted regarding my scores... Is it worth sending?</p>
<p>"All applicants must take the SAT or the ACT (with the writing component) in addition to the two Subject Tests outlined below. "</p>
<p>“You may take any two subject tests. Students should not submit two Subject Tests in mathematics to meet this requirement. Candidates whose first language is not English should ordinarily not use a Subject Test in their first language to meet the two Subject Tests requirement. All students are encouraged to submit additional Subject Tests (which may include one in a student’s first language), Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate test results, or any other evidence of the breadth and depth of their academic accomplishments.”</p>
<p>They are required. You application will not be complete without them.</p>
<p>Can’t ACT w/ writing replace the SAT subject tests?</p>
<p>Depends on the school. Harvard, no.</p>
<p>^Of ivies, Yale, Penn and Brown take ACT in lieu of both SAT and SAT IIs; rest of ivies still require IIs if you submit ACT.</p>
<p>Harvard requires 2 subject tests from all applicants. There are two rather amusing threads about this in the Harvard subforum :)</p>
