Standardized Test Scores

On the Rice website it says that they only require the SAT I and 2 SAT II or the ACT with Writing test scores. So if i have a decent ACT score with writing section, do you still recommend me taking 2 SAT II tests?

and also does Rice only accept a certain number of students per school? Or do they not set a limit of acceptees for each high school? I'm just wondering because i know for a fact from my school i have 1 EDer and 2 RDers (Including me) and I wouldve applied ED but cost was a major factor why i didn't apply ED (told my interviewer this too and he took note of it)

I would take the SAT IIs if you think that there are two that you can really do well in and that would improve your application chances.
It can only help, if you do well. However, if you are taking them just to take them then bad scores might go against you.

Also, I really am hoping they don't set limits on people accepted from one school. That would stink for me because over like 15 people in my class are applying because they got a fee waiver, even though they don't know anything about or like the school. I hope their lack of interest shows through in their essays!
