SAT II Lit. or Chem?

Test Preparation SAT Subject Test Preparation

<p>What do you think of my reasoning...</p>

<p>I need 3 high-score subject tests for my colleges, 1 down already with SAT USH - 790. I finished AP Bio this year and will take the SAT II in the fall, should be good as well. </p>

<p>I was going to take SAT II Chem but I have heard colleges prefer a 'broad' array of SAT IIs....so one math, one science, one history etc...</p>

<p>Problem is that I haven't studied other subjects in enough detail yet e.x. physics, spanish....so that leaves literature. </p>

<p>My critical reading score on the ACT was a 34, and although I never feel confident on reading sections, I have always been 99th percentile for CR on all exams. </p>

<p>I just took the Barron's diagnostic and got a 690...which isn't bad seeing as though I haven't practiced any literary terms etc yet. Even my USH practice test was low-ish at 680 and after a week I got it to 790. </p>

<p>So heres the question: with sufficient self studying this summer, would taking literature be a better idea than taking chem?</p>

<p>What do you want to study in college?</p>

3

<p>Eventually medicine, but would Major in History/Political Science....so I'm guessing for History that literature would make more sense than chem? Oh and none of my colleges require a SAT II math btw.</p>

<p>But chem is so much cooler than lit.... haha I'm a little biased, though. There's probably not a huge advantage to either one.</p>

<p>yeah I just want my score to count :D</p>
