Wait for SAT ST scores to apply?

I’m applying to Dartmouth (go Green! :D) for Fall of 2011. I’m applying for normal decision (deadline Jan 1). I live in a very rural Midwestern town and did not fathom I’d apply to Dartmouth when I was scheduling standardized tests, so I chose just the ACT w/ Writing. Now that I know I’m applying for Dartmouth, I see I need to provide two SAT Subject Test scores. I’m signed up for the next test date (Oct 9). Should I hold onto my online application until after the test or should I submit all I can as soon as I can, and wait on the Subject Test results?

Thank you to all who help!

P.S. Rural Midwestern hometown, 3.94 GPA, 31 ACT, in desperate need of financial aid… Do I have a chance at acceptance to Dartmouth?
