My SAT II troubles

<p>Hey,
I have 800 Math IIC, 750 World History. But I got screwed over this June because I took 3 tests and didn't study for any (720 bio, 700 physics, 700 ush). ugh</p>

<p>I'm applying to HYPSM, among others. Do these colleges look at ALL your SAT II scores? Or can you pick and choose which to send? I'm planning to retake bio and physics in october to try to boost up a score to 770+. Would it be possible for colleges to see 800 math, 750 world, 770+ science only? Or will they see the 700 ush and the previous science scores? Thank you!</p>

<p>Even if you have to send all of them, mostly all colleges only consider the top three scores you’ve received. :slight_smile:
(Of course, they’ll like it if you took more. However, it’s not necessary at all, really.)</p>

<p>Well most Ivys won’t allow you to use score report so all the scores are gonna be sent. If they only require 3, then they will look at the highest 3 subject test (what will benefit you the most)</p>

<p>Yes! Thank you so much! This is good news. I was afraid that my bad test scores would go against me…but I guess not =]</p>

<p>This is not quite true. Four Ivys—Columbia, Cornell, Penn, and Yale—require you to send all SAT I and II scores. The other four—Brown, Dartmouth, Harvard, and Princeton—do not require you to send all scores, although Dartmouth and Princeton “encourage” you to send all scores even though not requiring it.</p>
