Harvard sat subjects

<p>Does taking math level 2, math level 1 and physics are considered as 3 sat subjects for Harvard admission or just as two dut to taking two math subjects?..?..</p>

<p>:)</p>

<p>thanks for the help.</p>

<p>Need help people !!! :-(</p>

<p>If someone knows write it down.
I tried asking Harvard but someone stupid in the admission office send me the testing requirements which don’t explain whether its valid or not</p>

<p>I’m an international student if it has any connection</p>

<p>No…it wont be considered. you have to give…Phy, Chem and Any MAth 1 or 2…Sorry for the disapointment.</p>

<p>Thanks I didn’t noticed that someone answered… If anyone knows more about it let me know.</p>

<p>Since when is there a mandate on what subjects you have to test. Any admissions officer will say (with two caveats), take the three tests you will do the best in. The two caveats, do not take a foreign language exam for a language you speak at home, and avoid taking both math I and II assuming you took them together or you take I after II which is to say that one possible option is you could take I after learning geometry in freshman year and take II junior year. All in all, the second caveat is based more on preference of the admissions office (it’s in your interest to show high achivement in multiple fields) while the first is much more enforced and highly frowned upon.</p>

<p>i was also wondering whether we could take math 2 and 1 to have them as 2 SAT subject tests. does anyone else have any input on this topic?</p>

<p>See: [Harvard</a> College Admissions § Applying: Three SAT II Subject Tests](<a href=“http://www.admissions.college.harvard.edu/apply/application_process/satsubjecttests.html]Harvard”>http://www.admissions.college.harvard.edu/apply/application_process/satsubjecttests.html)</p>

<p>“more information is always helpful in admission”</p>

<p>Although you could submit your Math 1 and Math 2 scores, it’s not really giving the admission’s office more information, as Math 2 encompasses part of Math 1.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Not much more to it. Maths II is Maths I but at a higher level, covering more (and harder) topics. If you take both - what’s the point?</p>

<p>What you want to demonstrate with the 3 SAT subject tests is in depth knowledge in different academic areas. Hence 3 different subject tests to demonstrate that versatility. Taking both maths amounts to your shortchanging yourself and looking like you haven’t mastered enough breadth in subjects.</p>

<p>And since Maths I is easier than II, it just looks silly and pointless to do both.</p>

<p>An answer for my question… Hope it helps someone.
Hello,</p>

<p>Thank you for your inquiry. This is perfectly acceptable. We used to have a policy where only one mathematics could be taken for credit in the application, however we understand that some school systems do not allow students to learn such a wide variety of subjects and so as long as you have three subjects, we will accept them. </p>

<p>Sincerely,
Harvard College International Admissions</p>

<p>Nice of you to post their response. My answer to you would have been to not do it but obviously Harvard is OK with it.</p>
