@Suly99 great job on Biology…my son will take Chemistry test next summer after AP Chem this upcoming year…he will be a junior
720 Math II 670 Bio M… Not pleased at all with my scores.
@brazos21 – congrats on the great scores. You can send them all in to certain schools but check the websites - some only want math 2. Common App down now till Aug 1 but you can check school admissions pages. An 800 in math 1 is a much higher percentile (99%ile) than an 800 in math 2 (81st %ile on math 2 - my DS thankfully got it too). But math 2 is more advanced math so that’s what many colleges want to see.
@brazos21 Math I is not as advanced as Math II; I recommend just sending Math II. Anyway, you want colleges to see how advanced you son is,not how good he is at recalling math skills he learned sophomore year.
800, but expected.
690… Guess I’ll be retaking it in October…
I got 800 but 81st percentile :/. What percentiles did you other 800 people get? Does percentile matter/get sent to colleges?
I hate my scores I was so confident with math and got a 670, on chem I got a 710
@blueeagle Same… I got 670 in Bio and 720 in Math II (wasted so much time during the test, had like 8 omitted cuz ran out of time at the end).
@YoohooAddict I understand my chemistry score at least because i had no idea what I was doing but I thought Math had a generous curve and I was so confident and thought it was easy. I don’t know what to do now in regards to college apps
@blueeagle Same lol…I understand my bio score…Only took regular bio (no honors/ap) and studied for 2 weeks only, but math was a mistake on my part during the test, even though i didn’t prep at all. Ya I’m lost for college apps now, cuz I need to retake my sat 1310 score to apply early, but i also need to better these subject test scores lol.
@YoohooAddict if you dont mind what schools are you applying to?
@blueeagle MIT, Stanford, Berkeley, Carnegie Mellon, UMD, NYU, Cali institute of tech, gwu, cornell… still gotta decide there’s abit more…ya but it’s hard to decide which to do early action and which not to… especially since stanford has restrictive early action.
@Harvardbound2017 @classy2017 what were your percentiles? I got 800 too but 81st percentile
@YoohooAddict that’s an awesome mix! Good luck!
@aprilludgate from what I understand, everyone who gets an 800 has the same percentile score.
@blueeagle Ya, the problem is now deciding on how to apply to all of them appropriately lol… tryna double major in Computer Science and Mathematics… btw when u said “an awesome mix” that reminded me of my gamer tag lol…
I got a 750, is that worth retaking? I’m applying ED to Columbia most likely as a history or poly sci major. I’m also taking the ACT in Sept, so I don’t know if it’s worth focusing my time on Math II, especially with supplements and everything else…
@marlorea i think when it comes down to it if you are a strong enough applicant with your regular grades and whatnot, i wouldnt worry about it
@musicalmatrices Ohhhhh ok thanks!
