SAT Subject Tests

Applying to College
1

Hi, I was wondering if it would be better to submit a lower scored subject test if it is in a higher percentile that the other one? For example, I got a 690 on the US History test which is 59th percentile but a 670 on the literature test which is 70th percentile, which one should I submit (I already have a good Math score that I’m submitting as well).

I’m applying to UVA EA and according to the dean, the Subject tests are now completely optional (not highly recommended), should I still submit the scores even if they’re kind of low?

Also, I’m planning on applying to Dartmouth RD, should I retake a test to boost my score or are my scores fine as they are?

Thanks!

I’d submit literature!

I would submit both! or just the literature but I recommend that you retake them if you can. It doesn’t hurt to try them again and higher scores can always be better.
