<p>I know that 3 is the standard number of SAT IIs most selective colleges ask for. If I have taken courses that prepare me for more than 3, should I take all of the ones I feel prepared for or would that be overdoing it?</p>

<p>What subjects do the colleges you are applying to want?</p>

<p>Take the three you feel best about the first time around, and then decide on the others.</p>

<p>Most selective colleges and universities require 2 SSATs. It’s only a couple of Ivies and some peculiar liberal arts that still require 3. Mind you, it won’t take long before they join the majority.</p>
