With the ACT, do you still need subject tests?

Test Preparation

<p>Considering the ACT covers a lot of curriculum stuff unlike the sat reasoning test, are subjects tests still needed?</p>

<p>It depends on each college's requirements. Check the Web sites of the colleges you are most interested, or contact the admission offices, for up-to-date information. Some colleges require subject tests from all applicants, ACT or SAT I. </p>

<p>For the UC's, definitely.</p>

<p>Go here to see list of colleges that require, recommend or consider SAT IIs: <a href="http://www.compassprep.com/admissions_req_subjects.aspx%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.compassprep.com/admissions_req_subjects.aspx&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>For any one of those under the required column where there is a * next to the number required, that means the college takes the ACT in lieu of both the SAT and SAT IIs.</p>

<p>You will notice that most colleges in the nation do not appear on that list at all. That is because most neither require nor consider SAT IIs for admission.</p>
