Okay, so I’ve taken two subject tests:
USH - 650
Math 2 - 730

I’m definitely retaking Math and I was contemplating retaking USH since the only other subject tests I could possible take are Literature, French, Chemistry, or anything I haven’t learned and want to self-study for (and that isn’t happening). I’ve heard Lit is pretty impossible to study for and Language tests really are only good for native speakers, and my chem class this past year was pretty ridiculous (really easy class, I don’t think I learned much).

So my question is…should I retake USH (which would require a decent amount of review, but I guess it’s possible), take Lit/French/Chem, or just let my USH score be and retake only math? I have forgotten a LOT about USH but I got a 5 on the AP (don’t know how) and pulled an A- in the class…

I’m aiming for UCLA for an American Lit major, if that helps.
