I’ve taken the SAT twice and I have two subject tests.
Should I just send them all or choose my highest SAT?
Does NMSC want any subject tests/does it affect their review of my application?
Thanks so much!

No, they only want the SAT. Good luck!
Send all your SAT scores. NMCorp may use a special calculation for a section, like they did on the old SAT, so you’ll want to make sure that they use the sitting that has a qualifying score.
We sent the higher SAT score plus the Subject Test scores to NMSC. The regular SAT score order says “fulfilled”, but the Subject Test scores say “Awaiting Fulfillment” for NMSC (but fulfilled for all colleges). So, I’m guessing that NMSC doesn’t accepts downloads of subject test reports.
If your highest SAT is highest across the board, I’d just send that.
If they are old SAT scores, you want to look for the Writing test with the highest multiple choice score. (This is, without the effect of the essay score folded in.)
I doubt NMSC superscores, but I don’t know that for sure.
Send both and they can determine which is a qualifying selection index. The “higher” SAT score may not be the best score to qualify as they have now changed to a selection index as opposed to a qualifying score. They have said that the confirming selection index will not exceed 209 since that was the lowest state SI to move to NMSF. To figure out your confirming selection index, it would be the same as figuring out your PSAT selection index. Keep in mind that as @Ynotgo said, the writing score does not include the writing portion so you need to exclude that from the calculation.
@Ynotgo I ended up doing that too. What do you mean by “fulfilled”? Does the College Board update your order? How might I check that?
Thanks for all the answers!
