How important are SAT II's compared to ACT/SAT??
read topic title. I did very poorly on my SAT II's (chem 610, math II 620 and us history 720) whereas very well on my ACT/SAT (33/2200). how would colleges react to my misbalanced test scores? and how important are SAT II's? I plan on retaking them in the fall. any help would be appreciated! I plan on applying to schools such as UCLA, Berkeley, Stanford, and UCSD

From the mathematical viewpoint, it would seem that 3 SAT IIs would be worth as much as one SAT I, though I doubt 3 800s in SAT IIs would be as valuable as a 2400.

Even though u did GREAT on your act/sat, the sat II scores are very important as well. My friend had a 33 on the ACT along with 740,730,680 on the sat IIs and he got rejected from Stanford, but he did get into Penn.
