<p>Hello guys I have a sat score 2040 which I think is pretty good score to get in good schools like some UCs,pennstatee
Etc. the problem I face is that of high school marks which are average but I still have some worries
My 10th std marks are overall 75% in gujarat board
My 11 th std marks are 74% but if you see all practicals!computer marks it's 80 but the problem is that I have 55 in physics
Will that be a problem in the admissions or will they see my overall score with all English ,computers and practicals</p>

<p>Will a sat subject test in physics help me ?</p>

<p>Yes, do take the subject test. but, make sure that you score well in it. If you do, the colleges will understand that your low score is due to the relative difficulty of the Indian education system.</p>

<p>That said, do ensure tht you improve your performance in the 12th grade; colleges look for upward trend in grades</p>
