<p>I'm a native Korean speaker who came here 8 years ago. Would it be worth for me to take a Korean subject test in addition to 2-3 other SAT IIs?</p>
<p>Thanks:)</p>
<p>Yeah I am in a really similar situation actually. Moved from Korean about ~8 years ago. I took the Korean SAT II with Listening last November and got a 800 pretty easily. I think it's worth it because it shows that you excel at Korean as well as English. I also took/will take 3 other SAT IIs: Math II, Physics, and History. </p>
<p>so yeah, go for it. Definitely worth it.</p>
<p>MrPrez, how much did you study for the Korean test?</p>
<p>Yea, I don't see why it would hurt if you do well on the other SAT IIs as well.</p>
<p>i heard private colleges dont really count 800 on math that great of an accomplishment for korean or chinese because its really easy for native speakers. i came from korea to america in 1997, forgot most of my korean, and still scored like 700 on it. the average for korean is 757.</p>
<p>its good for the UCs because they only look at highest scores no matter what the subject is</p>
<p>^ yes that is why i said private colleges.</p>
