<p>how do sat subjects scores affect one's being admitted?
are score of 800 780 and 780 competative?</p>
<p>Honestly, what do you think? And I'm guessing these were in science and math? Or, more likely, this is yet another troll...</p>
<p>i dont know how important is subject
they're for math chem and phy</p>
<p>Yeah they're competitive, but it would have been nice if you had taken one in the humanities.</p>
<p>(I knew they weren't humanities since competitive was spelled incorrectly.) :)</p>
<p>Maybe you could take the English Lit or US History this June? It might not be too late to sign up... Good luck!</p>
<p>if a student takes more than 3 sat IIs, which ones does princeton consider?</p>
<p>the three highest scores, i think</p>
<p>are 740 and 760</p>
<p>Sorry to hijack the thread, but are ASIAN MALE MathII/Phys/Chem 800/800/800 scores frowned upon? (male Korean-Canadian citizen)
Is it better to just keep these scores, or should I take my chances with something like a French/Lit/World History that I'm almost certain I won't get an 800 in?</p>
<p>You know, if I had 800, 800, 800 scores, I wouldn't be too worried about it being a bad thing...</p>
<p>I think they'll take the top three scores if you take more than three tests, so no harm in trying then.</p>
<p>i agree with alfredeneuman. won't hurt to try another one, as long as you don't do an atrocious job on it.</p>
<p>alfredeneuman, I'd say take an SAT II in the humanities. That being said, I think it's more important that the rest of your application demonstrate a broad range of interests.</p>
<p>What about a 900? Would that be bad?</p>
<p>Yes. It would. It wouldn't show enough potential for improvement.</p>
<p>Haha! Those last two posts made me laugh out loud :)</p>
<p>is it bad if your third subject test is a language one, compared to phys/chem/bio? like i'm asian, and im taking the French subject test.</p>
<p>Glad I could make you smile! Somewhere on the Columbia board there's a parody thread titled "chances for success". If you want to really laugh, read it. :)</p>
<p>I think im gonna retake my 800, i am sure i can do better this time! (haha)</p>
<p>I'm taking mathII/phys/french like you, adamonkey. I think don't think there's really any downside to it. My application will already show enough of my math/science side, and I'm sure it's the same for you. An 800 in french though, would turn some heads. At least that's what I'm hoping.</p>
