<p>So it is a fact that there are some colleges out there like the UC's and Stanford that say that SAT Subject tests are optional.</p>
<p>However, I'm curious as to how many actually get in to the good UC's and Stanford without taking the SAT Subject tests (not saying I'm planing to do this, as I already taken some SAT Subject tests; not good scores though).</p>
<p>Well…last year two subject tests were required (UC)…so you’ll find out in a couple months XD</p>
<p>Edit: They can’t hurt if you do well though.</p>

<p>Yeah, but on the other hand, if you do bad… then I guess that’s a problem…</p>
<p>hehe…Yup xD But why bother sending if you did bad? </p>
<p>Also want to add, while they are “optional,” some are also highly recommended. For example, Math 2 for engineering. </p>
