<p>So, this is the only place I thought I could ask the following question without being a total jerk. So anyways, last year I took the US History Subject Test and because US History is by far my best subject, I was expecting an 800. However, I had a bad test day and only got a 770. I am gonna take math 2 in October and I am expecting a score of around 770-800 (I'm pretty good at math as well, but I have to study, unlike history which comes much more naturally). So the thing is the schools I want to apply to ask for two subjects and most of my friends that have gotten in to HYPSM etc. have two or three perfect SAT II scores, so I am wondering how much my score of 770 will hurt, assuming math is like an 800 or 790?
Again, if this is a stupid question, please tell me. But I am seriously worried.
Thanks!</p>
<p>If you are sure you can score 800 on the history, I suggest taking it after your Math on your test date. that’s IF an 800 is guaranteed. you don’t want to be scoring lower…</p>
<p>I was thinking about that but I was in AP US last year and I have basically forgotten everything about US History and I will only get an 800 on math if I study, (my natural talent is definitely not math), so I don’t think thats an option. How much will it hurt me?</p>
