<p>Colleges that require SAT subject tests do put weight on them. How much exactly is generally an unknown except they say they are “important.” Colleges that require subject tests, require two (except Georgetown, which requires three). Most of those will consider your highest two for admission if you submit more than number required so sending more than two does not add anything unless the third or subsequent ones sent have higher scores than previous tests sent. Harvard considers all provided. Note that the large majority of colleges neither require nor use subject tests for admission.</p>
