Low SAT subject test scores?

Thanks for reading this. I just got back my SAT subject scores from May, and they seem low to me. I took US History and Chemistry (planning to take one more subject in the fall), and got a 770/780 respectively. I am looking at some ivies and other very selective schools and hoping for merit aid at some places. I took APUSH and AP chem this year and got an A+ in APUSH (101%) and an A in AP chem (96%). I anticipate a 5 on the APUSH exam and a 4 or 5 on the chemistry exam. In terms of other testing I got a 35 on the ACT. Will my low-ish subject test scores hurt me?
