This is a Carnegie Mellon thread. Was that one of your schools as well? If so you should note a few things:

1. CMU requires you to send all your standardized test scores so think carefully before deciding to do further testing.

2. CMU does not require the essay on either the ACT or new SAT. (This is a new policy this year).

3. CMU requires you to specify a major and college when you apply. You are admitted to a school and/or college, not to the university in general.

4. CMU has specific subject test requirements depending on the admitting college/school. All but the Schools of Fine Art, Design, Music and Drama are going to require a Math subject test (and the majority will require Math II).

You should check out the admissions website to get more specific info.

Good luck!
