Does Yale only look at the top 2 sat 2's?

I don’t know explicitly about SATIIs but I know they want all SATs and ACTs because they want to know if the applicant is a test-retaking machine. A 2340 in one sitting is much more impressive than a 2340 after the fifth sitting.

Basically, they want to steer students away from excessive multiple test re-takes. They that a student can better use his/her time on other areas of self-improvement rather than spending every waking hour trying to get 80 SAT points – as if that will significantly increase the chances of acceptance.
