<p>I hope everyone reads about the following correlation study. According to this study HSGPA along with SAT 2 scores gave a better university GPA correlation. My scores in Subject Tests are 790+ whereas my SAT 1 score in first try was less than 2100. I am really wondering about the effectiveness of SAT1 test score? </p>

<p>SAT Subject Tests may have more predictive validity with respect to college GPA because people, for the most part, choose their classes in college, just as they choose which Subject Tests they take.</p>

<p>^that sounds about right. if you choose a sub. test that you truly like and will major in, you are bound to do very well. for me, SAT sucks. but for the subject tests next year, i feel like i can do well self-prepping because i have an interest in the subjects. Also, the sub. tests are more straight forward I believe…no silly wording or things to throw you off i think</p>
