<p>Hi, i'm a junior and i will be taking the SAT II for us history and math2 in june. i also plan to take it for chem in oct or nov b/c my AP chem teacher next year will review most of the stuff by then.</p>

<p>my question is, should i still take it for spanish-no listening or chinese-with listening too?
i took spanish for 3 years with no prior knowledge and i am decent at it,
i was born in china and have been in the us for 7 years, i speak chinese (both cant and mand) so i should have no problem in the chinese test, but not sure if i should take it or not. i don't think i need to take them (too much stress and not alot of time) but idk, advice needed!</p>

<p>If you're fluent in Chinese, you should take the subject test for it for sure. You'll probably end up getting a near perfect score, and that looks great. </p>

<p>I'd leave Spanish for another time... you need to be really good at the language to get a good score.</p>

<p>^^^^no...colleges look down upon a foreign student who took their native language. If you really had to take chinese because you needed that high score, then go for it. If you do good on the first three you really don't need to take either. But, if you get above a 650+ in spanish it may knock off that one year of language in college</p>
