Subject Tests.

Just got subjects test scores back.

I got an 800 on literature (yay!) but a 640 on US history. This is surprisingly low since I got a 5 on the US history exam.

I want to retake the subject test in November. However, one of my EA schools recommends 2 subject tests. Should I send the literature score now and wait to send my US history one? Will it get there in time?

Wait until the second USH score is ready. Don’t send just the one score.

The USH SAT Subject Test is a way different animal than the APUSH test. My opinion is that the Subject Test covers more facts/dates than the AP version.

My son got a 5 on APUSH and thought that the Subject Test was a bunch of random facts that his teacher didn’t go into depth although he got a 780.

Use a Barron’s book and an old test from the Blue Book to practice.

You’ll have to check each individual school for timing. Almost all will list the latest test date they will accept for each deadline. Some will even specify whether rush delivery is required.
