Retake or not: that is the question.

<p>Hey guys,
so last year at the end of 10th grade I took Chem and got a 610.
This year, after AP Chem I got a 680.
I also took Math 1 (740) & Math 2 (770).
Should I retake any of these in the fall? What other subjects should I consider?</p>

<p>I'm looking to apply ED to UPenn (Wharton), EA (MIT, Bentley) & RD (NYU, Georgetown, Carnegie Mellon, Wake Forest)</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>For the schools you want to get into, I’d say take take the chem test again, but your math scores are good</p>

<p>Consider that virtually everyone at MIT who you will be competing against has an 800 in Math 2.</p>

<p>Also, 3 times is a lot to take a subject test. To be fair, though, you did one of those without having taken AP Chem, so it is an unusual case.</p>

<p>Ah, I see. Thank you for the advice!
My question is: Is there really a huge difference between a 770 in math 2 and say, a 780 or 790? If so, I should probably retake then.</p>

<p>No, the difference between 770 and 780/790 is almost completely meaningless. You want an 800.</p>

<p>Okay. So what prep books would you all recommend to get an 800 on math 2?</p>
