<p>SAT I: 2070</p>
<p>SAT II: World History 750
Biology 710
Math II 660</p>
<p>I know my reasoning score isn't that great, but I'm not sure my score will improve that much. But, I know my math II score can improve. Should I re-take the Reasoning or Subject tests? I am applying ED, so I have only one chance left to take SATs. I also plan on taking the ACT.</p>
<p>Depends whether you think you can do a better job with a retake.
If so, definitely take the SAT I again for 2100+ (bottom 25% of their acceptances), preferably 2200+.
The ACT won’t conflict at all, so definitely try it.</p>
<p>I was under the impression that 25th percentile of Penn is much lower than 2200.</p>
<p>You should try to get your subject scores up, a 2000+ is decent but most people do pretty well on math2 and bio. so i would take those again to be more competitive.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>The parentheses followed 2100.
The bottom 25% mark is a little over 2100, while the 75% mark is a little over 2300.</p>
<p>I think I’ll take the subject tests. Thing is, I do not want to take the bio subject test again. Maybe I’ll take Literature and Math II. What do you guys think?</p>
<p>StarsAligned, where did you get your Penn SAT stats from?</p>
<p>It’s called google. Use it.

<p>My bottom 25% was off … I was thinking Harvard
2020-2290 and check the breakdowns.</p>
<p>i would retake the SAT reasoning test. 750 and 710 are not the best scores but they are solid scores.</p>
<p>Penn will accept the November test date if you rush the scores. Therefore, if I were you, I’d retake your SATs in October and the Math 2 (plus another, if you choose) SAT II in November. You stated you are confident that your Math 2 score will improve; in that case you shouldn’t need to worry that you won’t be able to preview the score before you send it.</p>
<p>Don’t you need to send in all of your scores anyway?</p>
<p>Exactly … you would have to rush it anyway.</p>
<p>i took the SAT twice but i didnt study at all the second time which was extremely stupid on my part.
i only improved by 20…
my CR dropped by a lot but my math and writing scores went up by quite up a bit, hence the tiny, insignificant improvement.
both scores are in 2100-2200 range
the first set of scores are more balanced across the three sections, but lower.
i should def still submit the higher score though, right?</p>
<p>and also on a side note. i plan to take lit this oct and i am actually studying for it. hopefully a high lit score will make up for my not so hot CR score? 
(wishful thinking)</p>
<p>Do you guys think it’ll look bad if I take the Math I subject test instead of retaking Math II. I have pretty much forgotten all my trigonometry and don’t want to spend a lot of time studying for subject tests now.</p>
<p>Are you a URM? If not, definitely retake.</p>
<p>^ nope. I’m Indian, so I’m def not a URM. I’m probably going to retake Reasoning. I was planning on retaking Math II, but I’ve forgotten most of my pre-calculus and don’t want to spend a lot of time studying for subject tests. Do you think it’ll look bad if I take Math I instead of Math II? (I’m applying to CAS.)</p>
<p>Ehh, I was wondering the same thing about my SAT reasoning tests. I only took it once, and I scored a 2330, which is definitely not a bad score. The only reason I’m concerned though is that all my points off were from one section only (the Math section). I know scores aren’t everything, but for a future econ major (at the CAS, not Wharton), I’m worrying that a 730 in math is going to be a dealbreaker… :/</p>
<p>Your SAT reasoning score is amazing! If you’re worried about math, take a math subject test.</p>
<p>Try to get a 2200+ or ideally 2300+. If you were applying to Wharton, math ii would probably be a must, but since you’re not, try to find another subject you could probably get a 750+.</p>
<p>bandgeek, it would really be a waste to take the SAT again. Your score is fine, and there’s a good chance it would actually go down if you retested. The Math II subject test would probably be a good idea especially if you are majoring in econ (it also is for engineering/math/any of the physical sciences). If you take it in October, just elect to send it directly to Penn (to be safe).</p>
<p>Ehh, I did some stupid things with the math subject tests. I elected to take the Math I test in January of my junior year, not realizing that I knew 90% of the stuff on the Math II test. Then, just to make matters worse, my last-minute studying was thrown off-track because one of my friends passed away the week before. I ended up getting a 750 on Math I, but I can’t imagine it looks good to take both Math I and Math II. 
I have done pretty well on the other subject test I’ve taken (History- 790) and I’m going to take Literature and Chemistry in October, so maybe I’ll do Math II in November?</p>
