Should I sign up for another SATII?

Applying to College
1

<p>I have taken SAT Subject Test few times and these are following scores I have.</p>

<p>800 Math II
800 World History
800 Chinese
770 Bio E</p>

<p>Should I bother taking USH come June? Am interested in top schools like HYPMS.</p>

<p>No, there’s really no point…</p>

<p>They only want 3. If you want to show your success in other courses take the AP’s.</p>

<p>You seem to be a really good test taker. If it’s easy for you and you can easily get a 750+, then sure why not? But if you have to waste time studying and preparing and it’ll take away from time you could have spent doing more necessary things, then forget it. Having another 800 on your application would be cool, but it’s definitely not essential and might not even have any effect on your admission.</p>

<p>You already have three 800s. Most schools only ask for two in the first place. You’re fine.</p>

5

<p>Uhh the most anyone asks for is three, and you have three perfect scores. I’d say you’re fine lol.</p>

6

<p>While they require only three, surely they consider more than that if you have more, right?</p>

<p>Bump, need an answer to my previous question. Thanks.</p>

<p>I say don’t bother. The most another exam could do is bolster the current standing you have. You possibly have a greater chance of making yourself look worse, and the additional effort you put into that exam, equal to that of the other exams, would not be put into consideration.</p>

<p>You’re in great shape, don’t sweat it.</p>

<p>As far as I know, they really don’t.</p>

<p>It can’t hurt (as you can always not send poor scores) but it won’t be a good investment of your time. The vast majority of people only take and use three. Keep in mind however, that they don’t really care about native speakers scoring perfectly on their respective SAT II. So while a 770 BIO E is a highly respectable score, I suppose another test would allow for a triple 800 showing.</p>

<p>Sure, they’ll look at it, but will that tell them anything more than they could’ve learned from looking at your existing scores? No, not really and it certainly won’t give you an noticeable edge over another applicant with 2 800 SAT IIs. As reach4thestars stated, you should probably utilize the time instead to focus on other activities.</p>

<p>Exactly what I was thinking. I suppose I won’t bother anyway though, since I’ll be pressed for time and can’t prep that much.</p>
