SAT 1 & SAT 2 confusion! (Pepperdine University)

Transfer Students
1

<p>Ok, guys I am really confused. I have taken the SAT tests for Biology, Chemistry and Physics.</p>

<p>And I am planning to apply to Pepperdine University. They have asked me to submit the SAT 1 scores. Now my confusion is, what is the difference between SAT 1 & SAT 2? I know this is a dumb question, but plz dont judge me. I am really panicky these days…and I just want to make sure I am doing the right thing.</p>

<p>The SAT test that I have taken, is it SAT 1 or SAT 2?</p>

<p>Can someone please tell me??? Thank you.</p>

<p>The SAT tests for Bio, Chem, Physics and any other specific subject is a Subject test, formerly know as a SAT II tests; each scores up to 800 pts. I don’t know any colleges that require these tests for transfer applicants.</p>

<p>The SAT 1 is the test that includes CR, M & WR; each section scores up to 800 pts for a total of up to 2400 pts. Some colleges require the SAT 1 from transfers.</p>

<p>Thank you so much for your reply.</p>

<p>So this means that I took the SAT 2…and I can’t apply to Pepperdine! :(</p>

<p>The vast majority of four-year universities require either SAT I or ACT scores.</p>

<p>You only need SAT scores if you are transferring less than 30-ish units. If you are sort on units, it doesn’t mean you can’t transfer without the SAT, it just means you have to wait to transfer. Or you can try to take the SATs now.</p>

<p>I am at 28 units…so that means I can’t apply this year to Pepperdine, cuz I haven’t take the SAT 1, I have only taken the SAT 2.</p>

<p>And it is too late to take it now because the app deadline is Jan. 5th, 2014. :(</p>
