SAT Subject retakes?

Test Preparation
1

<p>So I'm a junior going into Engineering (or another STEM field in that general area), and just got my 10/5 SAT subject scores. I'm rather flexible in languages (fluent in Russian as well as English, about four years of a Spanish private tutor, two years online lessons in German and Mandarin Chinese, and a public school 10 months worth of French), so I decided to take the Spanish test as well as both Maths. My scores were as follows:</p>

<p>Math 2: 780
Math 1: 680
Spanish: 490</p>

<p>Yeah, I really don't know about Spanish. Questions there, at least for me, were very iffy. Will colleges (not Ivy leagues, as I've got a 3.6 GPA, albeit with an AP heavy courseload) simply like the fact that I was brave enough to take Spanish, or should I remove it through Score Report? </p>

<p>Also, should I report both Math 1 and Math 2 (since I understand that 2 is considered to be harder than 1)? I was a bit sick that day, and decided to take 1 first so that I could get into a rhythm on the easiest test. Will they see reports of 1 and 2 as redundant and possibly worse than just 2? </p>

<p>Thank you all a bunch in advance. I need to do Physics Subject study right now, so bye.</p>

<p>EDIT: I've got most of the remainder of this year locked up. This month, I'm doing Lit, Spanish (L), and Physics (2 of which are lamb to the slaughter tests), and I'm taking US, World history, and French in december, with the big test three times in the spring. Potential retakes would happen next October/November along with my Chinese Listening test.</p>

<p>If your colleges allow, use score choice to provide the highest test scores possible. If not, you really can’t hide your math 1 and spanish score even if you wanted to. I think you should focus on a few subjects and not take nine as you mentioned above… Two scores are required for top tier schools and three scores are more than fulfilling.</p>

<p>No. Definitely use score choice if possible</p>

<p>Thanks to both of you. My father is practically forcing me to max out on subject tests, so I’m taking as many as he thinks I can even come close to doing (I need to tell him that some colleges don’t give a dingo’s kidney about Score Choice, so I’m risking a lot there). I’ve decided to forget about the French test, and hope he does too. US/World are my fortes, though. Thank y’all once again.</p>
