First of all. Breathe. Enjoy your coming senior year. No more subject tests - it is overkill. And if you get a 2300 on the SAT like you think, do NOT take it again.
Question #1 - anomaly not a downward trend.
Question #2 - I was going to say “yes and yes” but it sounds like your guidance counselor isn’t interested.
Question #3 - I don’t know, you will have to research each
Question #4 - No, the Subject Test in Lit has little to do with AP Engl & Comp. How you do on the SAT in critical reading and in writing will tell how much you really learned in APE.
Question #5 - once you finish the Common App (if you are using that) – my daughter found that it took her 3-4 hours per application to write the supplemental essays, edit them, rewrite, edit, etc. What worked well for her was to finish her Common App by end of the summer, and then do one school a week beginning in September (some schools don’t release supp essays until end of August). She started with the schools she wanted to turn in first. One school at a time. Of course, one per week didn’t really pan out because there is always something … but she finished 8 apps by the first week of December when she learned she was accepted to her ED and she didn’t have to finish the remaining apps.
