Horrible Spanish!!!!!!!!!!!

<p>Help me please</p>

<p>What happens to Valedictorians with 32s on their ACTs, many ECs, a 740 on the English Lit test, a 700 on the US History test,</p>

<p>and a horribly low Spanish Sat II score? (560)</p>

<p>I suggest you either retake the test or take another sat II because I think it will hurt you a lot.</p>

<p>Dont universities take the top two scores if they only require two SAT IIs?</p>

<p>bump ..........</p>

<p>Can anybody else please offer me some advice? Here are the schools I would like to attend:</p>

<p>Cornell University
Yale- doesnt require SAT IIs
Washington University in St. Louis Doesnt require SAT IIs
UIC UIUC
U of Michigan
Carnegie Mellon
Columbia University</p>

<p>yale requires 3 SAT 2's</p>

<p>Several of those colleges require 3 SAT 2's... So a 560 will definitly hurt you there... In the others, they'll probably consider your best scores...</p>

<p>yale doesnt when you submit the ACT</p>

<p>Actually...you're wrong. </p>

<p>Which standardized tests does Yale require?</p>

<p>Yale requires either the SAT I or the ACT. Students who submit scores for the SAT I are also required to take three of the SAT II Subject Tests. They may take any three subject tests of their choosing. The middle 50 percent of Yale's entering class this year had scores between 700 and 790 on both the verbal and the math sections of the SAT I.</p>

<p>And the other schools only require 2 SAT IIs, so now that we have this cleared up, is there still danger with that score?</p>

<p>babuskagirl, re-read what you posted:</p>

<p>"Students who submit scores for the SAT I are also required to take three of the SAT II Subject Tests."</p>

<p>Unless he took the SAT I as well (which from his post it sounds like he didn't), that sentence makes it sound very much ilke he does not have to submit SAT IIs.</p>

<p>To Yale I plan to submit my ACT in lieu of the SAT I and the three subject tests, because Yale university requires either one or the other.</p>

<p>The other schools on my list that look at subject tests require only two, so my real question is this: If only two are required, do schools traditionally take the two highest scores and only look at those for admission or do they also take into account a third or a forth score (such as my ridiculously low Spanish score?)</p>

<p>I know a girl who scored like a 420 on it. She was valedictorian and she had other test scores that were good. I think she got into Bowdoin and Davidson and Washington and Lee. I don't know how many subject tests they require though.</p>
