Question
Good morning,
I'm a solphmore yet and I'm starting to take the SAT's Subject so I would like to know if when I retake that test will my previous score affect my admission ? It's because I'm going to take Biology and Math I now in June, Math I can get a very high grade but Biology I'm doing like for practice (I know I'm not going to get a good grade in Biology in the first time) so, should If I do biology now and retake later will that erase my previous score ? If not, should I cancel my score after I take it ?

Thanks a lot,
Leonardo

Answer
Different colleges have different policies.  All of your scores will be reported.  Most colleges only look at the highest score.  If you get the review book and tudy for biology, you should do well the first time, and not have to retake it.  Or you could take chemistry or physics later, and never take the biology test.
