<p>Subject tests concern me too, having 2 tests- World Hist 730, Math II 780. Taking the third subject test would obviously just be for Georgetown, but I feel like I would bomb the third test since I’m not very good at any of the other subjects. How much does not having three subject tests hurt for RD?</p>
<p>is it required to send every subject test i have ever taken? the college board website let me avoid sending all of them but i don’t know whether that is legal or not</p>
<p>Georgetown requires you to send in all standardized testing. They don’t accept Score Choice. Btw, I also live where you live (I applied early action, though). Seahawk: There’s no way to ascertain how much it will affect you. All we know is that they recommend that applicants submit three. If you are going to bomb a third, don’t bother.</p>
<p>
you do have to select a tentative major but it doesn’t lock you into anything (besides the school) so you don’t even have to worry about changing it. at least that’s the case in sfs- i put down regional studies on the application but with my acceptance letter they called me an undeclared major.</p>
<p>thanks! i thought that was the case but just wanted to doubly check before i sent a crappy one. and you’re from columbus? i wish i had applied early action so much, 3 kids already got in from my school (though 1 is a lacrosse player) so i hope that doesn’t mess me up even though i have far better stats than they do.</p>
<p>Yes. Where do you go to school?</p>
<p>I decided to register for another SAT Subject test since I only have 2 (taking US History but already took World, is that fine?). How do I let them know so that if they review my application with just 2 scores, that I took a third?</p>
<p>@seahawks- write it in the sat section of the gtown app! i am also taking a subject test in january -_- haha seniorrrzzz</p>
<p>haha yeah i decided to add georgetown senior year and didn’t have time to take another subject test, and thought if i was really serious about coming here i ought to take a 3rd test. does anyone know if taking us history and world history is alright? i saw some people get in with those 2 but wonder if i’d be at a disadvantage.</p>
<p>Ok I’m in a big dilemma. I really like Georgetown and I really want to apply. I got a 33 on my ACT, but my top 3 SAT2 scores are 680 in Math 1, 640 in US. History, and 630 in Spanish. I know these aren’t Georgetown standard, but my ACT is above their middle 50 percentile. Should I send the 3 SAT2’s?</p>
<p>Send them. If you don’t send any, expect a rejection. They also require you to send all standardized testing, so you don’t have a choice. If they were to find out that someone didn’t abide by their rules, they technically could rescind an admissions offer.</p>
<p>so i’m planning to take another subject test in January for Georgetown.
I indicated on my application that I will be taking that test.
If i decide not to take it, will they penalize me?
ALSO, What if i do take this subject test and do poorly on it…do I still have to send the score to Georgetown?</p>
<p>and happy new year everyone!</p>
<p>polarbears123, Georgetown requires all scores to be sent.</p>
<p>To people freaking out about not having perfect SAT scores, or 3 of them: I had a 710 in USH and a 600 in Latin. I got in as an intended language major to the College. If the rest of your application is strong, the scores really aren’t that big of a deal.</p>
<p>Serenen: What hooked them?</p>
<p>My essays and recommendations, I believe. I conveyed my passions and that made up for poor test scores and average GPA.</p>
<p>My daughter never took any subject tests and was accepted early action. It is hard to know what precisely Admissions is looking for. Don’t make yourself nuts trying to fit a profile.</p>
<p>I agree with pickyconsumer. I submitted only 2 of my 3 subject tests and was accepted early action. </p>
<p>Just remember that suggested does NOT mean required!</p>
<p>I took three SAT II tests because they were recommended, and although my scores were not great, during my interview with a local alum, she said it was good I took three as they were a way to weed out applicants.</p>
