<p>Half the websites for colleges I see say, "Take english, a math, and another non-language subject test."</p>
<p>Those tests have feelings too.</p>
<p>Colleges do like Language Subject Tests. They don’t like when native speakers take a Language Subject Test and try to use it as one of their required Subject Tests. Also, I’m pretty sure no college asks you to take “English” which, if you mean the Literature Subject Test, is one of the most challenging Subject Tests out there.</p>
<p>But if I’m a non native speaker can it count, even though they specifically say no language? I don’t think so :P</p>
<p>Well obviously if they say “no Language Subject Test”, then you can’t use it. But I’m not aware of any college that says that. Can you give me an example?</p>
<p>One of the choices for NYU admissions:</p>
<p>Three SAT Subject Test scores (one in literature or the humanities, one in math or science, and one non-language test of the student’s choice) or;</p>
<p>Yes, but NYU is uncommon in that it allows applicants the choice of submitting the score of three Subject Tests in place of the SAT Reasoning or ACT with Writing Tests. When they’re not requiring you to submit SAT or ACT scores, they want to see strong Subject Test scores in core subjects. You can still submit a fourth Subject Test score in the Languages and it will only help your application, provided it is strong. Moreover, they say “one non-language test” to deter native speakers from attempting to use a Language Subject Test score in their native language as one of the three required scores.</p>
