I heard from couple reps, teachers, and counselors that SAT 2’s are always a plus, and that they show that you took the initiative to take them. However, I also heard that bad SAT 2 scores show your lack of knowledge in that subject area.
I would like an honest opinion if it is better to send horrible subject test scores or not send them at all.
Appreciate your help!!!
PS: Sorry I placed the same post on a different Forum. That’s why I am re posting it.
Without knowing what your scores are or what schools would receive them, it’s my opinion that you do not send them. Your description of “horrible” suggests that they won’t help you and can only hurt. It also depends on what your other stats are (SAT, GPA, Rank, etc…) but “horrible” will not help regardless. Good luck!
If the school doesn’t require them, and they aren’t flattering, why on earth would you send them? It does not show ‘initiative’ to send in bad scores. It shows poor judgement.
