2 S.A.T Subjects Tests On The Same Day?

I was just wondering; Since early decision to Columbia Is November 15 this year; How in the world would I be able to take the S.A.T reasoning again along with two subjects tests before November 1st. If Somebody can please list dates of these tests and give me a little feedback that will be great.

I am pretty sure that the subject tests and the reasoning test are offered at the same time; therefore you can take 2 subject tests on the same day, but not 2 subject tests AND the reasoning test.

But check with the College Board.

I think they expect people to take a round of tests in the junior year.

yeah but I only took one S.A.T reasoning tests this "June" of my "Junior" year.
College Board is kind of annoying && confusing but I'll check it out again.


3 S.A.T IIs in one day?. I think by the time you're done with two; your brain will probably over-heat LOL

I took 3 in one day and I was fine. I did US Hist, World Hist, and Literature. I had no problems finishing them in time and I got 700, 720, and 770 (which is good enough for me). If you have time it is probably not ideal to take all three at once but it is certainly doable and perfectly acceptable.

Thanks alot. 3 S.A.T subjects? One Day? will that actually boost acceptance? or Adcoms will just look at it as just another test?

Taking them all in one day won't boost acceptance if that is what you are asking.

But one school I want to apply to requires 3 SAT Subject Tests and I only had one date left at the end of junior year. I didnt want to take tests senior year, so I chose to take them all at once.

Taking three SAT II tests in one day = taking three SAT II tests

They don't care whether you space out the three tests or take them all in one day. That is entirely up to you.

I've taken two in one sitting, but not three. It sort of depends on how you're feeling on that day, but if you'd normally do well in those subjects, you'll do fine.

Collegeboard may seem like a money-sucking machine, but it is not that annoying or confusing. Are you satisfied with your SAT I score? If so, then clearly you could just take two or three subject tests in October.

Three subject tests in one day really isn't that bad. Each one is only an hour long. So, one SAT Reasoning test is still longer than three SAT IIs.

No im not satisfied with my S.A.T reasoning score so I'll take the subjects

Not done with the questions though

Next>>If you take a language subject test such as spanish; how does that reflect on your chances? I'm proficient in three languages one being englisha nd I'm deciding on taking a spanish subject test or does it look like I'm aiming too low
