3 subject testsssss??

princeton requires 3 subject tests but as a student in india- my course work allows me to give only two sat subject tests(maths2 and literature).
it really isn't my fault- if they had economics as a sat suject test i would have given it.............so what do i do - can i still apply to princeton or should i forget it?

You can email the admissions office and ask if you'd like, but I'm pretty sure they're going to tell you that you have to take three.

Is there any reason you can't take Math IC? Or just self-study for one like World History?

In my case, I only took 2 sub tests and then when I know they require 3, I e-mailed and they said they would just take the 2 for consideration but I would be somewhat at a disadvantage since I won't have enough factors for them to consider.

thats why ended up not applying to princeton- there's such less chance of making it anyways and then being placed at a disadvantage just makes it very bleak.

You can take a test you didn't have coursework in. Buy the prep book.
