I can't take my SAT IIs!!

Applying to College
1

<p>I am freaking out here because I have not taken any SAT Subject Tests yet- I was going to take them in January. But I just found out that I have something to do on that day and I definitely will NOT be able to take them... And there are no more subject tests until May, which is obviously too late.</p>

<p>The only school that I applied to that recommends SAT Subject Tests is Emory University.. My GPA, rank, and SAT are not that great. (3.4, 25%, 1350)</p>

<p>Am I completely screwed? Emory doesn't actually require them but they are recommended, which pretty much means the same thing.</p>

<p>I don't know what to do ... :( I know GPA, SAT, and rank are more important, but SAT 2s can help a lot.</p>

<p>I was accepted into a school that recommends you take them as well, but I didn't.</p>

<p>what do you HAVE to do, unless its surgery, you can get out of it</p>

<p>and if this is something that JUST came up...YOU need to set your life priorities here....and if you HAVE to miss a test that you kind of need to take, you better be SURE that what you opt to do instead is worth it and required</p>

<p>Opt for Wed or Sunday testing. Make up a lie...you're Jewish or something...anything lol.</p>

5

<p>not taking the SAT II's won't hurt you since it's optional; it just won't help you. but, like citygirlsmom said, you'd better have a good reason for skipping the SAT...</p>

<p>Trust me, I know my priorities. Obviously, I wouldn't be freaking out if I didn't it. This is something that I cannot NOT go to. No, it's not like a Hannah Montana concert or anything like that. It's actually serious. The point is that I won't be able to take the SATs. </p>

<p>But do most people who apply to Emory, etc send in SAT 2s? Probably, right?</p>

<p>I took SAT IIs on an alternate testing day last year. There was a major math competition scheduled for that day and it can be arranged for alternate testing if you meet one of a few conditions.</p>
