Do I take 2 or 3 SAT IIs to get into NYU Law/Stern?

<p>AudreyH is right. I’m not sure but I believe it used to be that if you were applying to CAS or Stern you needed SAT I plus two SAT IIs, but now if you have SAT Is you don’t need to send in SAT IIs, even for Stern (at least I think so). However, I think it would be to your advantage somewhat to do so; Stern seems to put a big emphasis on calculus and math ability. </p>

<p>Forget Math I - pick something else, but not a language. If you’re okay with Bio, do Bio. You must do three Subject Tests if you are not planning to send in your SAT I scores; I assume if you send in your SAT Is they’re not going to be too picky about SAT Subject Tests, but I’ll just throw this out there - if you think you’re okay with doing Bio, can hit 650 or 700 if not more, why not? Your A Level/prelims/predicted grades will clearly reflect that you haven’t taken Bio in two years. It’s less likely to count against you than for you.</p>

<p>NYU Law is a graduate school. If you want to do corporate law, you still need an undergrad degree before moving on to law school.</p>

<p>P.S. are you from the little red dot? Ironically, one can get a law degree from NYU and become a practicing lawyer a lot faster in Singapore than in NYC…</p>

<p>P.P.S. if I did guess right and you are from Singapore, you have a whole world of resources available to you (especially if you’re in one of the, ahem, premier JCs). Lots of seniors doing arts have had the same problem of not having SAT IIs to choose from; I’ve heard of people who do arts at A Levels and then Phys/Chem/Math II or Lit/Math II/Bio (my friend did this - he did neither A Level Math nor Bio) for the SATs and come out with anything between >700s on each or perfect 800s. Ask them for tips, how they did it, what they recommend, etc. Whether or not you think the A Levels are a good or bad thing, it does prepare you, and it especially prepares you to study quickly to a known test format. I tested 720 on a sample SAT II Spanish paper and I had never taken a Spanish class in my life when I did it. You might be surprised at what you can score on a Bio, Phys or Chem Subject Test.</p>

<p>P.P.P.S. I need a CYA clause. If you’re not Singaporean, I’m sorry. Just that A Levels, first language English, second not offered, third is crappy French or Chinese - it’s an easy conclusion to draw.</p>
