Subject scores and others

<p>I got my three subject test scores back yesterday:</p>

<p>Math Level 2: 600
Chemistry: 720
Literature: 710</p>

<p>I studied hard for the math one, but not at all the other two. By the looks of it, not studying was the way to go...
Should retake the Math Level 2? I have taken honors precalculus with a straight 93 all year. </p>

<p>Also, I took the SAT I in March and got a 2060 (740-CR; 660-W; 660-M). I'm taking it again in June (2 weeks away) and have been studying slightly. </p>

<p>My ultimate goal is a 2200, and to get accepted to Harvard. Is this feasible?</p>

<p>Also, how "good’ are these scores overall?</p>

<p>Your “goal” should never be to get accepted to Harvard. NEVER.
It should be a dream. Before you send in your application, you have to admit to yourself that you are probably never getting in. Hope, but don’t expect. Goals are generally something you can work for, but you can’t reaely work for a Harvard acceptance unless your a genius.</p>

<p>Your scores are way too low for Harvard, though, and not just by CC standards. I’d say get a bare MINIMUM of 750, or if your school doesn’t usually get scores anywhere near that, just go as high as possible. You could get accepted with lower ones, but 750 is the lowest part of the ballpark (unless you have a terrible day, admissions officers are people too!).</p>

<p>Don’t obsess over Harvard. There are loads more schools that are worth your time.</p>

<p>It’s probably a good idea to retake the SAT Math II, but only if you’ve studied for it. Most of the material is precalculus level, so right after the school class is the best time to take it. Make sure you study hard, though, and don’t retake it if you aren’t sure you will improve.</p>
