<p>S is taking Chem Honors (sophomore). Should he take the SAT II this year? My D took Chem SAT II either end of junior or beginning senior year and wished she had taken it right after she finished the course while it was fresh. Or should he wait and take whatever he is taking as AP Science? And how much math is necessary for the SAT II Math (he figures he should take them both at the same time...). How many SAT IIs do most people take? He is also good in English (she was not as strong) but will probably be applying to Business....do colleges prefer Math/English over Science?</p>
<p>If your son is planning on majoring in business, he will be required to take either Math 1 or math 2. The number of subject tests he is required to take depends on what the college requires-more selective colleges usually ask for 2, but the top 10-20 colleges usually prefer three.</p>
