<p>Hi everyone...I'm a native Chinese speaker living in the US, and at my local Chinese school, one of the teachers is offering an SAT prep course for the SAT II Chinese w/ Listening administration in November. However, I'm still in 9th grade...I took a practice test and it was basically quite easy for me, but I still feel like it's too early to be taking the SAT IIs, especially since it'll be on my permanent record. Plus, I'm assuming that the longer I wait, the more Chinese I'll acquire. So yeah, do you think it's a good idea to take the SAT II Chinese now?</p>
<p>Ya, but I don't think colleges will look favorable over it since you're a native.</p>
<p>Well, I'm not exactly a native speaker, since I moved to North America when I was three, but since it's spoken in my house, it's practically native. So...can I take it and opt not to send it to colleges as one of my three scores?</p>
<p>The whole point is that you're Chinese.</p>
