Do subject tests really matter?

I got a 2260 sat (720 ritical reading, 740 math, and 800 writing), 4s and 5s on all my aps, and I have a 99 average. However, I did very poorly on my sat subject tests. I got a 680 on math 1, 690 on chemistry, and a 730 on us history. I made the mistke of not preparing at all. Dartmouth is my dream school, so I did early decision there. Will these subject test scores severely hurt me? I'm so worried!

These scores are all relatively good and should not hurt you in the admissions process. Good luck!

You're scores are great! As long as you have a good GPA and extracurriculars I think you should be fine!
