Are there any good schools besides Yale and Stanford that don't require them?

Yes, lots. If you're interested in LACs, Macalester, Carleton, Reed, and Oberlin do not require SAT IIs. I'm sure there are more - those are just the ones I considered.

Are you sure that Stanford and Yale do not require SAT IIs? My D insists that both require two subject tests, at least for those who took SAT reasoning. Johns Hopkins and some colleges in Cornell do not require SAT subject tests. But JHU "recommends" three tests for SAT I-takers, and Cornell "recommends" two tests for everyone, as far as I remember.

Stanford and Yale don't require SAT IIs if you submit the ACT with writing.
Also, Vassar doesn't require SAT IIs if you submit ACT with writing. Lawrence University and Hamilton college are test optional.
