As for SAT II’s, I intend to take English and US history. The class average is about a 75 in my AP English and I have a 104. In AP history the class average is about an 85, and I have a 100. I imagine I’ll get high scores in both of these subject tests, especially since I’ve been studying for them since September.

PLEASE respond to this message and tell me my chances.

Thank you so much.
