A bit worried about SAT2s...

Firstly I just wanted to say that I’m new to this forum and you guys have already answered so many of my questions, so thank you all so much. Here’s my question:

So I sent in my early action app to BC (#1 choice) last week, and also my SAT2 scores. They require 2 subject tests, but, being an idiot, I thought that I would take Math I and Math II in the October test since I had been studying math, and then I would just take one or two more tests in December. Then I read the thread that most schools don’t count both maths as two separate tests. I called the admissions office and I asked if I had fulfilled their requirements, and I was told that they would rather not see two maths, but they’ll accept them.

How badly does this reflect on my app?
Even though she said it was ok, will they look at my app and reject me on the basis that I didn’t meet requirements, or will they notify me that I need to take another one and defer me?
Should I be freaking out?

I wrote on the app that I planned to take at least two more subject tests, and other than this problem I think I’m definitely a fit for BC (4.0 UW, 5 AP classes, 2330 SAT, a good amount of EC’s, 2 varsity sports). I’m hoping that in the light of the rest of my application, this might not be a big deal.

Thanks for any help.
