Are My (Predicted) SAT Subject Test Scores Good Enough?

Hi guys!

I took the SAT subject tests in literature and U.S. history today.

I really don’t feel confident about the literature test. It was much harder than the practice tests that I took. Even if I didn’t miss any, my score would probably be a 630. I would be fine with that, but I’m thinking it’s going to be more like a 600.

My problem mainly was that I didn’t feel confident about the answer choices, so unless I was certain, I didn’t fill in the bubbles.

U.S. history, however, went much better. I’m hoping for at least a 700.

I’m kind of hoping that good scores on the tests would supplement my ACT score. I’m expecting to get either a 27 or a 28 composite. I know that it’s low…

Would good scores on the subject tests help my chances of admission? Scripps “recommends” taking them.

Thanks!
