<p>i want to go to one of the uc's, preferably berkeley, la or sd and i had heard that taking the math subject test was mandatory or recommended from one of my friends.</p>

<p>are there any sat subject tests that i should take?</p>

<p>i plan on taking lit and us history because math is definitely my weakest area and i was wondering if i had to fit math in.</p>

<p>no, they are not required,</p>

<p>Are specific SAT Subject Tests required for admission to certain campuses or majors?
Specific SAT Subject Tests may be preferred for admission to certain majors.</p>

<p>For example, applicants to the following UC campus schools, colleges or majors are strongly encouraged to take the SAT Subject Test: Math Level 2 and a SAT science subject test (Biology E/M, Chemistry or Physics) that is closely related to the applicant’s intended major:</p>

<p>Berkeley: Colleges of Chemistry and Engineering
Los Angeles: Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science
Riverside: Marlan and Rosemary Bourns College of Engineering
San Diego: Jacobs School of Engineering; also recommended for students considering majoring in the biological or physical sciences
Santa Barbara: Engineering and Computer Science majors</p>

<p>Irvine: Applicants to the Henry Samueli School of Engineering are strongly encouraged to take the SAT Subject Test: Math Level 2 as one of the two required SAT Subject Tests.</p>

<p>look into the colleges of your choice..some may require you to take subject tests..some may not..some may even place a requirement on which subject test they want you to talk...however, each college differs and not all colleges require you to take an SAT II.</p>

<p>thanks a lot evan, really answered my question.</p>

<p>btw: the UCs no longer accept Math 1, so if you're going to take a math, it has to be 2.</p>
