<p>All the colleges I've looked at have said that two subject tests is strong recommended. Does it increase chances for admission if you take more than two? Or is it beyond that it will neither make nor break you?</p>

<p>Yes, more than two increases chances. However, if the additional scores aren’t good, then it may hurt your chances. keep in mind that the additional scores that are unrelated to your major can have much more lee-way (like 600s).
For example, say i’m going to major in biology at MIT, who requires at least one math and one science. So I get an 800 in Math II, a 780 in Biology, but a 650 in Chem. I’ll look pretty dumb.
However, if I send my 800 in Math II, a 780 in Bio, and a 650 in Korean, then it won’t look so bad, because most biology people don’t particularly need foreign language.
Also, some colleges do not allow score choice, so choose your tests wisely. Pick the ones you know you will do well on. Hope this made sense :)</p>
