Not sure if scores are good enough for desired colleges...

<p>Hey guys. I hope all of your scores you got today were excellent. I'm a senior this year about to send in my application to Yale SCEA. I have a good ACT (34, one question away from a 35 and a perfect Science score, which is what I want to go into), but I wanted to take Subject Tests to strengthen my application, as well as for other schools like Harvard. Since I want to go into MCDB Bio or Computational Bio, I took subject tests in Biology M and Math Level 2. This is my third time taking subject tests--my highest scores thus far have been 720's on Biology E and Math Level 1. I prepped very hard and was score in the 770+ range on official practice tests. </p>

<p>However, I just got my scores. 760 on Biology M and a 710 (!!!) on Math Level 2. </p>

<p>I'm okay with my Bio score, though it could be a bit better... But Math Level 2! I prepped very hard and am in Calc AB at my school, and am doing extremely well (no BC available). I'm really scared now that if colleges see this, they'll think I'm weak compared to the myriad of students with 800's. I felt great about Yale, they've contacted me several times by e-mail... However, this worries me now. Maybe I should just send in my biology score? However that may look suspicious with only one subject test and Calc AB on my transcript...</p>

<p>Advice? Anyone in similar situations or have experience with this?</p>

<p>I too got a 710 on math II and am applying to MIT. Lets just hope that the rest of our application make up for it.</p>

<p>I don’t think Yale does score choice.</p>

<p>750 + is the best but 710 is still 700+ . Possibly you can sell that math is a good subject for you but some other core class is where you excel the most?
Not really currently or previously in that position so idk that much. Just suggesting some advice that could help.</p>
