I have a dilemma...

Hi…

My scores are sort of on the low side for a lot of the colleges I am applying to Regular Decision, including Yale (which I was deferred from). Since there is only ONE test date left for seniors (Jan. 28, I believe), would it be more beneficial for me to retake my SAT 1 or my SAT II’s?

As of now…

SAT 1 -
Old - 730 Math, 730 Verbal
New - 720 Math, 740 Verbal, 790 Writing

SAT II -
Math IC - 730
Math IIC - 740
US History - 750

How much weight do colleges place on SAT II’s? Just placement? Heavily in admissions?

Thanks for the help!
