If you’re applying to SFS, your science and math matters less than your history/liberal arts classes–SFS students will likely only take one or two STEM courses unless you want to take more. While Georgetown does not do score choice, they will evaluate your highest set of scores, so if you took a subject test and did poorly, retaking with a higher score will help, since they’ll only look at your highest set. That being said, as it stands, your SAT & subject tests scores are on the low side for Georgetown, and EA is notable for being more competitive than RD, so keep that in mind.

As for CULP, it’s one of the most open-ended majors in the SFS–you can choose to build your course of study pretty much however you want, as long as it’s coherent and has an IR emphasis. The College won’t have something as flexible, so if the flexibility of the major is why you’re interested in Georgetown, I’d suggest SFS.
