<p>I am currently a junior running out of time.
Steady-
SAT I- 780 Math, 710 Reading, 750 Writing
SAT II- 770~800 Japanese (Just taken), 760 Math II, 710 Biology</p>
<p>Problem-
During my during my sophomore year, I slacked off and took World History in December... I got a 560 (T__T)... but i got a 5 on the AP exam.</p>
<p>I intend on applying to cals. Would they disregard my sat II world history? or should i retake it...?
Please reply ASAP!!!!!</p>
<p>barring your GPA and class rank are up to par with your other standardized test scores, they will be lenient enough to disregard one bad saturday as a deciding factor towards your admissions, and potentially your future. Your AP exam shows aptitutude in the field anyway and it is much harder to get a 5 on an AP than a 700+ on an SAT.</p>
<p>Secondly, you are a junior. You have several more opportunities to 'erase' that score by retaking it... only do that if you study hard and are confident in a better score... but in my opinion you don't have to.</p>
<p>Remember SAT2's are not deciding factors towards admissions; they are only to show that what you have learned in your high school has proven successful for the '(inter)national' application of whatever subject you took. Once again, one bad saturday will not throw your papers into the deferred pile, especially since your other scores are very good.</p>
