SAT without Subject Tests Considered?

For Questbridge, the last SAT testing date to be considered in the match process is October 6. Schools I'm ranking require SAT with subject tests or ACT with writing. I got a 32 on the ACT with writing and will take the SAT reasoning on October 6 because I've been scoring in the 2200's on practice exams. Will this SAT score be considered in admissions WITHOUT the accompanying subject tests? Or is it a whole package deal, neither can stand on its own? I was just hoping my SAT reasoning would shine light on my ACT composite. I've fulfilled testing requirements, but I want to make my stats seem more favorable. I also ask this question because if I do end up having to apply in the regular decision round, I would like to know if it's necessary to sign up for subject tests in November or December.

Can anyone give their input? I hope I explained my concerns clearly.

Do you work for ********? All your posts are the exact same and push the company? Shouldn't you disclose that versus posting as a member of the CC community without a vested interest?
Also shouldn't "students futures" be "students' futures" as plural possessive? In addition, it appears to have been written by someone whose grammar is somewhat lacking by referring to "help you" but then in the same sentence refer to "your students". If you are going to promise to help students, "get you into the college of your dreams" you could start there....

Can anyone answer my question? I didn't think this thread would be hijacked by a troll...

Okay, I think my thoughts were a bit disorganized in my first post.

So I have the ACT with Writing already. I will be taking the SAT I this October. I do not have subject tests to accompany my SAT I. Does this mean that the SAT I score won't even be looked at by admissions because it's not a complete package?

For schools that require either the SAT plus two subject tests or, alternatively to both, the AcT, if you submit just SAT and ACT but no subject tests, only the ACT will be considered for admission
