<p>These are the possible Subject Tests I can take on the date that I want to. The thing is, though, I’m not sure on what Subject Tests to choose. I moved here, to Florida, circa six months ago. I’ve been getting straight A’s and I pay attention in all of my classes. Now, this year I’m taking American History (Regular with straight A’s). That’s the only one on the list I’m taking. I’m also taking Algebra II, and I’d wish to take the Mathematics Test Level II because I heard that most colleges don’t take Mathematics Test Level I as valid. About sciences, I’m taking environmental science this year. In the Dominican Republic I took Chemistry, Biology (twice), and Physics, but I’m not sure if the same material I remember is the one that’s going to be given on science tests. I’m not adept at French, even though I took it for several years (I don’t know the level on the actual test). Obviously, I’m not going to take Spanish; that would just be presposterous. I don’t like English very much, and I’m not very familiar with the “thee” and “thou” thing, and that’s what I saw on the test preview. I’m really good at math (I’m taking Pre-Calc and AP Statistics next year) and I would really like to give a try to the Mathematics Test Level II. My choices so far are:</p>

<p>1) American History (I know the contents well)
2) Math Level II (I’m pretty good at math, and I’m thinking of buying several books)
3) ?</p>

<p>I really need help choosing. If you think that by buying several science books on one of the Subject Tests (since I took the classes already. One or two years ago, though) I would do well, please let me know. If you have any idea in mind for me, please let me know.
Thank you</p>

<p>I just read over your most. My only thing would be that the content of the tests may not mesh with what you have learned. The best way to figure out what test you could score highest on is by buying the official CB Sat II Subject Test book and taking the tests you’re wondering about taking. Practice is the best predicator.</p>

<p>Thank you. Anyone else?</p>

<p>you really need PreCalc/Trig to score well on Math 2. Many schools will accept Math 1, so don’t discount it; besides the Univ of California system, engineering-tech schools prefer Math 2, but most others don’t care. If you are considering applying to the FL state schools, by all means take Spanish. While a private college may [I just don’t know] look askance at taking your native language, I would doubt that UF or Fla State would care.</p>

<p>My suggestion is to pick up CB’s Real Subject Tests and take different tests at home to see which ones you are strongest in…</p>
