Haven't fulfilled SAT 2 Testing requirements...worth it to apply

<p>Okay so here's the deal. I HAVE taken two SAT subject tests but while one of them is Math 2 the other one is not a science whereas MIT wants one science subject test. Why? Because I applied to some colleges last year and I got accepted but couldn't go due to other opportunities. </p>

<p>Those schools didn't require a science SAT 2 (just any two in general). However, this year, while I'm reapplying MIT has popped up my radar. Moreover, I want to major in something that is not science or engineering (Economics). All my essays and activities demonstrate this. </p>

<p>While I know that MIT general requirements state that even if one gets admitted they have to take some physics and chemistry and I wouldn't mind. But right now, I will not have the opportunity to take the Subject Test</p>

<p>Can I still apply despite not having a science Subject Test ( I know it's a requirement but I'm hoping the adcoms will look at the other stuff)?</p>

<p>You can start the application. The question is if they can overlook that little discrepancy. But you’ll never know if you don’t apply. Just saying.</p>

<p>Why can’t you take one? There’s one more test date before early, and three for regular.</p>

<p>

No. One math SAT II and one science SAT II are required.</p>

<p>Thanks for the responses. I’ll be taking a science subject test.</p>
