Should I retake the SAT or an SAT subject test?

Test Preparation
1

<p>On the SAT, I got a 2100: 740 CR, 690 M, 670 W</p>

<p>On the Math level 2 subject test, I got a 710.</p>

<p>Math is my best subject. I don't know why it's never that high. Probably just me making stupid mistakes under pressure.</p>

<p>I want to go to Northwestern, and I don't know if I can get in with these scores.</p>

<p>I can only retake in October, so what do I retake? The SAT, or the math subject test?</p>

<p>I think the SAT</p>

<p>700+ on SAT2s are enough.</p>

<p>To get into NW you’re definitely going to need a higher SAT1.</p>

4

<p>Agree. I say SAT.</p>

<p>Okay, that’s what I had planned on (since I only took the SAT once), but people have made a 710 on the Math 2 subject test seem really bad, so I sort of wanted to see what others thought.</p>

<p>Thanks, everyone!</p>

<p>710 isn’t a really bad score, but it’s not a great score either. I think my 740 was only 78th percentile back when I took it.</p>
