Sending SAT II to Schools that DO NOT Require It

I have offically taken the SAT three times. However, I signed up for the November test and honestly I do not know what I was thinking!

I am thinking about switching my SAT test to two subject tests (Literature and Math I), however, the schools I am applying to do not require or even consider them.

Therefore, what do you think is the best solution to this problem? Would these scores maybe exempt me from perhaps a math placement exam?

It would help you stand out to take them. It would show off your skill in those subjects.

Like SerenityJade said, it really helps you show yourself off if you did well, but it won't hurt you if you don't send them in

However, I'm not sure about the Math I exam. I've heard that a lot of schools (even the ones that require SAT II's) don't consider the Math I test for anything. The only math they consider is Math II (not 100% sure, though)
