<p>What are strong scores on the subject tests for top tier schools like Stanford and MIT? I took Physics, Math II, and Chemistry and recived:</p>
<p>Physics: 770
Math: 770
Chem:740</p>
<p>Is this Chemistry score good enough? The curve for that test is awful, and I have heard that colleges know that and that a score of 740 is good enough to be submitted. Is this true?</p>
<p>honestly for top colleges you should be getting 800s because for the subject tests you’ve taken set the 90th percentile as a perfect score. For top colleges you should be well above the 90th percentile.</p>
<p>I think that those are strong scores! And subject tests also have a more qualified group of test-takers, so the percentiles will naturally be a lot lower and colleges know this.</p>
