SAT II's

<p>Hi! </p>

<p>I'm a junior signing up for SAT II's right now and I'm not sure if any specific test will look better to Georgetown than any other test. I'm thinking that my score is more important than which test I take, and since I'm definitely a humanities person, I'll probably end up taking US History and German (I'm taking both APs this year, so 700's is a very reasonable goal).</p>

<p>Mainly, I'm looking at SFS; will it hurt if I don't take a science or math subject test?</p>

<p>For those in SFS, which II's did you take?</p>

<p>Doesn't Georgetown require 3 SAT Subject Tests?</p>

<p>I believe that they require SAT IIs for regular decision. They do not require that you submit scores for Early Action. However, if you are deferred, you must submit the scores to be considered. I didn't take the subject tests and crossed my fingers that I would be accepted, and it worked out in my favor.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>they never "require" 3 subject tests. They "strongly recommend" them, but they're not a 100% non-negotiable component. They are generally much more lax on them with EA applicants, since they figure they have less time to take them/prepare for them.</p>

<p>I took German with Listening (760), World History (740), and Math L1 (650)</p>

<p>I think that it probably is good to take different tests from an array of classes. For example if someone takes Math I, Math II, and Physics it shows they are only really comfortable in math and science. It wont look nearly as impressive as someone who scored well in a math/science, a humanity, and say a language. Colleges like well rounded applicants and that would definitely show it.</p>

<p>Well, I'm going to be in the SFS next year, and I took the Math II, US History, and Literature SAT IIs.</p>

<p>But I remember at this info session thing I went to a LONG time ago, they said that it's wise to take a math (econ requirements), a history (SFS is very social sciences oriented), and a language (the FOREIGN service)... but I skimped out on the language, as you can see.</p>
