<p>1) If I study I believe I can make an 800 on MathIIC. But I already took Math I (770) - is that not enough?</p>
<p>2) US History. I took AP, but I learned EVERYTHING the week before the exam. Civil War, John Adams, etc. I suppose I could call that a foundation?
Would reading a simple SAT Kaplan book for this subject suffice for a 700-800?</p>
<p>3) Korean Test. I'm not an international student - but I was raised in a Korean family. I understand that not all people learn a language through their foreign parents, but would a college prefer I prove I was born into something - or that I learned something in school? Basically - if it came down to US History or Korean which one?</p>
<p>[edited out - Posts must be English only, per TOS]
anyways, so far, ur list looks like this:
1. 770 on Math IC
2. Lit - still needs to be taken
3. Deciding between USH and Korean.
I heard that it's always perfectly okay for Koreans to take the Korean test, as long as it's not one of the first three tests. (might be a stupid rumor, but heck, what if its true) So, if u have to choose between the two tests, go for USH, and then take Korean if u have a chance. If u can take both, then go for both.</p>
<p>I'm a Korean and scored an 800 on Korean test. It's better than not taking it.</p>
<p>Taking Korean with Listening does not hurt you in any way. It is perfectly fine and will help you (not much, but better than nothing) </p>
<p>... If and ONLY if you score an 800.</p>
<p>You probably know that 30% of us score 800. If you score 790 or lower, you are a sitting duck (60th percentile ewww) </p>
<p>Another big thing is that Korean test is offered only once per year, while US history is offered a lot. I would take Korean: again, how can showing your knowledge in a foreign language possibly hurt you in any way? It doesn't hurt you.</p>
