<p>if im planning on applying to cornell as a prospective chem + bio chem major is it ok if im not taking the bio + chem SAT IIs (im in AP Chem next year got an A in honors chem, and only took honors bio freshman year), i will however have high SAT IIs in lit, history, and math II. i think id do badly if i took bio or chem tho cuz i havent taken a AP in either.</p>

<p>Don't take SAT IIs you can't do well in, and most ppl who take SAT chem and do well have taken AP. imho lit hist and math are fine. If you're a sophomore, you might want to take Chem after your AP class. Best of luck!</p>
<p>My D's GC told her that she will need a good score on a science SAT II to claim a prospective major in a science at an Ivy. You might want to take one in chem in the fall. That's when she plans to take hers.</p>
<p>i got 800 and 770 on chem and bio respectively before I took the AP for either of them. You don't need an AP or an honors class to do well.</p>
