Which schools specifically want humanities/science SATs?

AFAIK most schools don't really care what you take but they want you to do a Math test. Which schools (e.g. Wellesley) want a test from the distinct subject areas?

I'm wondering if I should take a humanities one since the three I took are Math IIC Physics and Chem.

it's probably a good idea to take a humanities too..just to show that you can do good in all sciences and humanities too. I took USH and physics, and is planning to take math 2 and lit. So, i'm doing two subject tests in humanities, and 2 in math/sci, and hope to score high on them.
btw, just wondering, what did u get on Math 2 and Physics??
I got 760 on physics and just checked this morning....
>.<...this score sucks..should i retake it? Will take math 2 this fall.

Hmm well, do you have evidence to support it?

I got 800 for Math IIC and Physics but I took it last June.

Retake a 760? It's not that expensive but I wouldn't do it if I were you.

I actually think that it would be better for those who are applying with an intended major or at least knowing they are going into ex. humanities to apply with all or mostly humanities scores as I imagine colleges don't care if a humanities major sucks at math if they get 800s for humanities.
