SAT Subject test scores in....Are these any good?

Archive SAT Subject Test Preparation

<p>I took 3 SAT subject tests:</p>

<p>U.S. history 600</p>

<p>Math level 2 600</p>

<p>spanish 630</p>

<p>I’m looking at schools like Northwestern, Yale, Penn State, and the George Washington University. Are these any good? Should I send them in or not?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Yeah, I kinda need to know what a good score is, too…</p>

<p>They’re low for Yale and Northwestern but they might be good enough for Penn State and GWU.</p>

<p>Good for Ivies is usually considered 750+ although a 700 isn’t bad.</p>

4

<p>These are very low for the schools you listed.</p>

5

<p>I agree with Linger. Especially Yale. Those scores are very low for that caliber of school.</p>

6

<p>Yea, Yale and Northwestern look for at least 700+</p>

<p>You have time though, I’m sure you can hit that mark</p>

7

<p>don’t send</p>

8

<p>If you have unusual circumstances, 650s would be okay. Other than that a 700 is considered the lowest end of the acceptable spectrum and you should try to offer 750s</p>

9

<p>is 700 in biology M good score? Is 760 in Math II good score?</p>

10

<p>Unless your ECs, GPA, and SAT I/ACT are STELLAR, retake them, especially for schools like NW and Yale. Look for at least a 700.</p>

11

<p>for ivies a 700 is minimum. But for most other, even respectabel schools, a 650+ is good. i heard anything below a 650 is not rlly so good. and below a 600 forget-it. </p>

<p>but dont sweat. u can retake almost all the subject tests like every month, u can definetly pull than 630 and 610 or wtvr over the 650 line, if not 700</p>

<p>Man, I can’t believe you guys are worried about missing a few questions. I missed at least 12 questions. And that is being VERY optimistic. </p>

<p>The silver lining is that I know my physics pretty damn well, and am pretty sure that every answer I did put down was correct. Only is issue is that I have OCD, and unfortunately it affects me when filling out those kinds of answer sheets. I obsess over filling in the bubble completely every time which slows me down. Also, my OCD makes me reread the questions typically about 3 times each, so its kind of a double whammy for something like the SATs.</p>

<p>Hmmm…did I reply to the wrong thread? I think I did. Damn you Google Chrome and your multiple-tab layout!</p>

<p>Last time I checked, MIT’s mid-range was 760-800 for math II and 740-800 for science. So I would say you’d need about a 750+ for a school such as Yale.</p>
