[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need 2 unless you are applying to Georgetown in which case you need 3. Many colleges don't require any. They are only 1 hour each and you can take 1-3 at one sitting. They aren't offered on every test date. Best to finish them at the end of jr year (they are offered in may and June. Definitely prep. [b]You will find the percentiles are on a totally different scale than the regular SAT since only kids applying to the most competitive colleges are taking them.[/b] [/quote] This is so true - my DS got 700s on two SAT subject tests last year and was only in about the 83rd percentile - but got 5s on the AP tests in the same subjects. Go figure. I heartily agree with the recommendation to take the subject test at the end of the year in which you take the course. [/quote] Some test-flexible schools have also started accepting AP scores as part of the standardized testing requirement. Bryn Mawr is one I can think of offhand.[/quote]
