retake?

<p>so i took math 2 and got a 670 and u.s. history and got a 680...first of all, is this score really bad for top colleges?
also, i am going to be a junior next year so i still have some time left, but i really don't want to take those same 2 again...so would it be better just to take other ones, or should i try to improve on the same 2?</p>

<p>what schools are you applying to??</p>

<p>They are not bad, but not really great. I think they are in the ball park for 2nd tier schools.</p>

<p>definitely not in the range for HYPS but in the range for lower ivy league schools</p>

<p>depending on your major, i'd retake at least math II because that's an easy subject to study for/easy to get an 800 with effort</p>

<p>Retake the Math II. Up to you to retake the History.</p>

<p>my advice: don't retake us history. take something else in place of it.
as for math 2, you should wait a year and take it because you'll have learned more material and have a better grasp of math in general.</p>

<p>you have plenty of time. figure out your strengths and take whatever test you feel most comfortable with. it doesn't hurt to take extra sat subject tests. (i think)</p>
