<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I am planning on applying to the following universities next year as an international:
MIT
Stanford
Berkeley
Harvard</p>
<p>I wanted to know how many SATIIs each of these colleges require. Preferably, I would only want to take 2, but perhaps 3 are required from some. If one applicant does 3 papers as opposed to another applicant who does 2, is there any advantage for the person who has done 3?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>Of those, Harvard is the only one that requires three.</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>If I did a third SAT subject test, would it be sent to all universities, or would I have the option to send it only to Harvard?</p>
<p>I believe you can send your subject test to any university you prefer. If you do well, however, I don’t see why you wouldn’t want to send it to other colleges as well.</p>
<p>im pretty sure MIT requires 3 as well. but you need to have taken math I and II. and the third subject test of your choice.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>It depends. With score choice, you can choose to only send scores for certain tests, so if a school only requires two tests you could just send the best two of your three. However, some schools don’t accept score choice, so you’d have to send all your scores to those schools.</p>
<p>^^ MIT requires Math I AND Math II?</p>
<p>I have a tip: Google “[college] standardized test requirement” and you’ll find all you need to know. CC is excellent for advice, but not everything you read in the forums is true.</p>
<p>MIT does not require both math subject tests. Where’s the logic in that? Math II tests everything on the Math I exam, so it would be ridiculous of both were required.</p>
<p>Proof:</p>

<p>Taken from: [MIT</a> Admissions: Standardized Test Requirements](<a href=“http://www.mitadmissions.org/topics/apply/standardized_test_requirements/index.shtml]MIT”>http://www.mitadmissions.org/topics/apply/standardized_test_requirements/index.shtml)</p>
<p>If you take a math, a science, and a third, then you will fit the requirements for all three.</p>
<p>oh my mistake. for MIT, its math level II, a science, and a subject of your choice.</p>
<p>Actually, for MIT, it’s Math I or II (they frequently state that both are considered equally in the admission process and that taking one over the other will not confer any sort of advantage whatsoever to the applicant).</p>
<p>more weight to II though, isnt it?</p>

<p>take 2, you’ll score so much higher</p>
<p>by 2 i mean math II</p>
