<p>My son is interested in the School of Computer Science. He took three SAT subject tests- Biology, Math2 and US History. Now, I see that CMU requires MATH and physics or chemistry for the school of computer science. At this point, I can't see him taking another subject test. Can he still apply or is it a waste of time without the physics or chemistry.
He took physics last year and is taking AP Physics this year. Thanks!</p>
<p>They ask for you to have a SATII in physics or chemistry, so you should have an SATII in physics and chemistry. Simple as that.</p>
<p>ssmom: Where did you read that?</p>
<p>They require one science and one math.</p>
<p>They prefer Chem or Physics, but they also accept Biology M as a test. </p>
<p>I know because I had the same problem: I read on the site that they’d accept Bio, so I took Bio, and then after I’d applied someone told me that they didn’t accept Bio. </p>
<p>So I called up the Admissions office and got that info.</p>
<p>Of course, at this point, I’ll probably not get in because of it, but they said they’d take it.</p>
<p>At the sleeping Bag Weekend I met a kid that took no SAT IIs.</p>
<p>I applied early to SCS and sent in Math1, biology and US history. I believe its 1 math and 1 science. I am 99.9% sure about that.</p>

<p>Seems pretty clear to me.</p>
<p>That admissions requirement site was just recently updated. As of November 1st, the Biology SAT II was still on the acceptable list.</p>
