<p>I don't take science subjects and since I live in Pakistan I have never studied Us history before. I don't know which SAT subject tests to take since there is no economics or business subjet tests. I could take maths level 1 and 2 but would they count as two separate tests? And somebody told me that we need graphing calculators for them.I could also take french. should I prepare for chemistry or physics for SAT II even though Ive never studied them before? this sucks!!! why couldn't i have taken a science subject?</p>
<p>Vast majority of colleges in US neither require nor use SAT IIs for admission. However, most of your high ranked colleges do. Harvard, Princeton and Georgetown require three. Others that require IIs require only two. Some of those recommend having Math 2. The University of California schools do not accept Math 1. Universally, colleges will treat having Math 1 and 2 as having only one subject test, i.e., they want tests in two different subjects.</p>
<p>Thus, your best course so that you can apply to virtually any college in the US is to take Math 2 and one other subject test (or two others if you intend to apply to Harvard, Princeton or Georgetown). That other subject can be anything you want (including French) except that if you intend to apply for a major in science or engineering there are some colleges that require a science SAT II to do so.</p>
<p>A different potential barrier I see to admission is that you seem to have taken no science courses in school. Many US colleges either require or want to see at least two such courses and preferrably three; most college applicants from the US have usually taken biology, chemistry and/or physics in high school. Though a number of colleges may evaluate a foreign applicant differently, you should assume that the lack of science coursework will be a factor considered against you in the admission process.</p>
