Subject Test Question...Kind of Scared

<p>Heyy so I just got my Subject Test scores back yesterday:</p>

<p>Math II: 760
Biology: 680</p>

<p>I'm really bummed out about Biology considering I have a solid A in the AP class and am looking at a 5 on the AP (I felt like it was much easier than the Subject Test...). I'm just wondering if I should report my 680 showing that I took the initiative to take the test but counter the "bad" score out with an A and a 5?</p>

<p>Also, I was ecstatic when I found out about Math II, considering how it's not really my strong suit; but after perusing the threads, a lot of you are upset about a 770-790 and I'm starting to get paranoid that a 760 isn't enough...should I stop worrying?</p>

<p>PS I'm applying to mostly top 20 schools with a few top 30s...everything else I have is up to par except standardized tests. Based on this info, can you accurately assess my questions please? :)</p>

<p>Any help is appreciated!
Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>Even though Math II has a nice curve, 760 is still damn good. Congrats! Also, for Biology, they’ll probably think you had a bad day for the test, because obviously you do know the material.</p>

<p>Good luck, you’ll be fine :D</p>

<p>Yeah that’s what was concerning me considering the curve is pretty lenient, but the number looks good nonetheless!
I guess you could say that about Biology…but is that really a legitimate excuse? A 680 is pretty average even on a bad day (which I didn’t have).</p>

<p>Thanks for the reply!</p>
