Does UPenn accept results from the subject tests taken in January?

I am taking two subject tests in November (in about 4 days yikes!) -math is one of them, but I'm not so sure my scores will be that stellar given that my school didn't offer college level classes; Some of the things on the math test I am learning on my own since I'm a student at economics high school so even the math was more or less different from what is tested on the SATs (we were more focused on currency, precious metals, accounts, transactions, stuff like that).

And if it does accept January scores, would it hurt my chances to be sending them in twice, with the first score being low(like 600 low)? I'm sure I will improve in two months but I fear by then it may be too late...

Yes, they take Jan test scores but they said it may put you in some disadvantage if all tests are not done by Dec.

Also make sure you setup your free scores with UPenn way before the scores come out so that the scores go out as soon as it is ready. If not, it will take awhile before the score is sent and probably will hurt you a little more.

no worries. i'm applying with a critical reading of 520 and i hope to get it

Oh, and sending in twice or more should not matter. Same date same score should appear once in their record no matter how many times it is sent.

Well I will have taken them by December, but the Math subject test specifically I know I will want to retake, or maybe take math II by then, if I'm prepared for it.

Oh and good luck literak! Hope to see you there
