How Many SAT 2s To Submit?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Cornell University

<p>I know you are supposed to submit two SAT subject tests along with your application, but I was wondering if I can submit more? </p>

<p>I took the US History SAT 2 and got a 790 on it. I am planning on taking Math 1 and Literature and submitting them both. Since Math 1 is considered "easy" (even with the 780-800 I plan on getting), I wanted to supplement it with a harder test. Will the admissions office look at all 3 SAT subject tests or will they just take my two highest scores and ignore the other test?</p>

<p>ONce you meet a certain threshold, everything else is superfluous.</p>

<p>So I shouldn’t take a third one?</p>

<p>It completely depends on which college in Cornell you will apply to. </p>

<p>All you should do is take the required, if any, SAT subject tests for the college in cornell you are applying to. If you get a 700+ on those tests, then you don’t really need any more SAT II’s. And I highly recommend taking Math II, if you are going to take a math. It really isn’t that much more difficult than Math I and it has a much better curve. For some cornell colleges that say SAT II’s aren’t required it would be best, I would still say, to have Math II and any other test of your choice.</p>
