<p>so i registered for the french subject test a few months ago thinking i’d have more time to prepare, but i just never got around to it, and the grammar sections are weirder than i’m used to so i’m guessing right now that i’d score in the 500’s 
luckily, i’ve got two 800’s on math 1 and history, so i technically don’t need a 3rd subject test, but now i’m wondering what to do, so i have a few questions:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>does anyone have any tips for how to cram all my studying into the next week and actually have it make a difference? i remember reading that at a lot of schools a score of 600 or higher gets you higher placement in classes, so i think i’d just shoot for that- do you think a 600 would be possible in a week?</p></li>
<li><p>is what i read correct, that a score of 600 helps you in college, even if it doesn’t help you in admissions? i wouldn’t send this score to schools i’m applying to, but i’m hoping that a 600 would help me once i’m in college.</p></li>
<li><p>i’m basically done with the testing i need to do, so should i just deal with the fee and move my test to october (is that the earliest?) so that i’d have more time to prepare? or should i take the test this saturday as a diagnostic tool and use that to study for retaking the test over the summer?</p></li>
</ol>
<p>thanks for your advice! :)</p>
