Questions on the ACT and SAT?
How many times did you take the ACT, SAT, and the same SAT Subject Tests? Did you do better each time, or after a while does it not get any better?

I took the SAT in March and got a 1930
I took the ACT today, I got 30′s on both my practice tests
Should I take the SAT subject tests as well? I have 3 AP tests in May in Chemistry, Statistics, and Euro. I feel like signing up for subject tests would be even more stressful to study for, especially if I really don’t need to.
So my question is, how important are subject tests to colleges? I know the majority of colleges don’t require them, but some recommend them. Any juniors/ seniors/ college students /adults that can give advice? Thanks!

Hello everyone. I’m kind of in a rut right now. I signed up for my ACT testing WITHOUT the essay portion with my only fee waiver for the ACT. I can’t cancel the test. I’m planning on attending a Cal State University. Most likely CSU Long Beach.
Does anyone know if CSULB requires that essay portion of the test?
I know for sure that they only need SAT 1. & there’s no need for subject tests.
But the ACT essay portion is worrying me.
Thanks in advance.
I remember after I took the SAT Reasoning, a few months later scores were online and I could check which answers I got right and wrong. Last June I took the SAT Subject Tests, and have seen my results. Is there any place on the SAT website where I can look over my answers to improve?
If not, how could I improve for them? (I took the Chemistry, Math 1, and Math 2.)
By SAT Subjects I mean to prepare for any SAT subject tests.
I heard that the SAT I is online while the subject tests are paper based.. Can anyone confirm this?
I got a 1990 on the general SAT test, and after taking the same subject tests twice, got around a 620 on each of those. My reasoning score is good, but since I have only one last chance to take the SAT again I want to make it even better. But now since my subject test scores aren’t that great, I’m wondering if i should take it a third time. I also know that I could improve on the SAT reasoning, but since i’ve already take the subject tests twice and haven’t improved, i don’t know if I’ll actually improve this third time. I’m stuck because I’m not sure which is more important and I only have one chance to take either.
so im hoping to get into cal berkely and with maybe a bunch of luck cal tech or some other engineering school like that…
on the subject tests i got:
math 2-800
physics- 800
chem- 770
regular SAT
math 770
crit reading 690
writing 680
AP tests
Euro-5
US history- 4
Chem-5
i was considering retaking the chem one (chem is my best subject… i was best in my AP class and raped the AP exam but the sat test was full of random things that i could have learned if i took some time to prepare, which i didnt, or i might just let my teacher write a good letter of recommendation to cover for that) and im pretty sure ill retake the regular SAT because i had absolutely no preparation and i think if i take a couple practice tests like i did for the math and physics ones ill do better
unfortunately, since im a lazy butthole my junior year GPA is 4.3
oh ya, and also i heard colleges care about if you take the hardest classes you can, which is what i do pretty much (except for english)
and ill be an eagle scout soon
and i won the fine arts award for my school this year
do i have a chance at getting into those schools?
I am a junior in high school and I’m wondering if it is possible to get into selective colleges without taking SAT subject tests or the ACT. I am already taking college courses in a community college and am on the honor roll there and I have taken the SAT with a pretty awesome score.
I know that some colleges (Weslyan, Brandeis) require the SAT subject tests but I’m wondering if its possible that I can get around that because I have already been taking college courses.
