When should I send out my SAT II scores by?

Broken Seraph · 05-08-2008, 06:01 PM

This may or may not have been asked previously, but I was wondering...
I'm currently a sophomore, but I'm gonna become a Junior soon.

I was supposed to take four three AP's my Junior year, but my teacher recommened that I pass on taking AP Physics because he said my grades fluctuated. I don't deny the fact that I do have one bad test in his class a semester, but that's it...

Anyway, the point is, I've told him that I'll move my AP Physics class to Senior year and take the AP exam with it and so on.
Now, I also want to take the SATII for Physics and send the scores out to the colleges I want to go to.

Now, in my Senior year I'm probably going to take the SATII around May or June (depending on how well I score in the May exam). If I do take those exams, will the colleges I want to go to recieve the results in time?

What should I do to speed up the arrival of my results?
And when do you think is the best time to send SATII results to colleges?

guy ur kidding right, the latest possible date to take any sat for college is jan although i would recommend getting all of them (normal and subject) out of the way before then...may or june of senior year is wayyyyyyyyyyy to late colleges will already have taken or rejected u

Well, what should I do to bring my SATII count up?

So far I've taken the US history SATII (but I don't know how well I may have done)
and my Junior year, I'm planning to take the AP English language and AP Chemistry exams (but I don't know if English Lanuage is an SAT II subject test.)

Should I move back my AP Physics to Junior year?

u r worrying way too much i didnt take my sat until march of my junior year then i took math 2 in may of junior year, us history in oct of sr year and physics in nov of sr year u still have a ridiculous amount of time if ur still a sophomore what ru so worried about? the most sat iis that are ever required is three (for harvard and princeton only)

and ap physics is wayyyy harder than the sat 2 physics i wouldnt recommend it as a prep course for the sat 2

o and there is no english language sat ii only literature

got it?

Hehe, well I am worrying, I suppose I should stop that.
But, I'm not worrying for some strange reason...
It's because I want to have basic requirements for the Ivy League...
The only problem is, one of the Ivy League colleges wanted you to take an SATII in Math, Chemistry or Physics, and an SATII of your choice.
My AP Calc is in Senior year, so I won't be able to get in my Calculus SATII in time if I follow AP exams with an SATII

Should I take tutoring for the Math lvl 1 in SATII?

(heh, sorry for the questions. ^^; )

There is no calculus SATII; there's MathII, but that's Pre-Calc.

The absolute latest test score I've heard universities accepting for decision consideration is January, and January is typically only if you are retaking a test (i.e. no new test scores are accepted)

"The only problem is, one of the Ivy League colleges wanted you to take an SATII in Math, Chemistry or Physics, and an SATII of your choice."

no ivy league asks for 4 sat iis and none of them require specific ones (unless ur doing engineering sometimes a math and either physics or chemistry is required) idk where u got that info but its wrong (unless it has changed for next year which i doubt)

and yeah no calculus sat
