For UC’s, does he also have to take the SAT subject tests? I believe so. A few years back my S took only the ACT, plus the SAT subjects, and did get accepted to Davis, UCSC, UCI and UC Santa Barbara. And his scores were not exceptional, though his GPA was. ACT only shouldn’t be a problem. We really don’t need to throw more $ at the College Board do we?
