What are the last acceptable SAT tests for UCLA and UC Berkeley?

I am taking the SAT Reasoning in December. Will they still accept this score?

Also, do universities "look down" upon the fact that one takes an SAT Subject Test on a foreign language that one naturally speaks? I am taking the subject tests for Math II, Chemistry, and Lit but I am considering whether I should replace Lit with Spanish ( I am terrible at reading comprehension).

Should I take Spanish or Literature?

Sorry for the noob questions but I looked all over the site for these questions but did not find any answers. Thank you.

It depends, since you mentioned Spanish it probably means that you are URM, so a strong Subject Test score will be a big plus, even at UC. If the difference is a 700+ on Spanish vs. a sub-600 on Lit, Span wins easily.

btw: Lit can be a really difficult test -- some say it's the "hardest" of the Subject Tests. Heck, check the cc test forum and you'll find quite a few kids who scored a 5 on AP Eng Lit but <600 on the Lit ST.
