Sending Subject Tests to schools that don't require them

Test Preparation

<p>One of the colleges I applied to, University of Southern California, says on their website about Subject Tests: "We find them helpful in evaluating applications for merit scholarships."</p>

<p>I was wondering if it would be worth it to send my Subject Test scores to colleges that don't require them. I got a 690 on Math II and a 640 on Biology-E. The schools I applied to that don't require the tests: USC, Occidental College, Vanderbilt, Northwestern.</p>

<p>I'm also wondering if submitting those scores could possibly hurt my chances at admission.</p>

<p>Sorry to be a nuisance - bump?</p>

<p>Though they don’t require them, all four of those recommend them so yes they can help; your scores are OK although not stellar, but generally those schools will consider them only if they believe they help you so sending is advised.</p>

<p>You might want to not submit those.</p>
