Which one's did you take (if you took them)?  Why?

-----------------

I took Bio M, Math II, and French.  For what I wanted to apply for, most schools required me to take the Math (level II was preferred), and some form of science.  The last one could be whatever, so I took the French because I wouldn't have to study, and it would show that I had some form of fluency in the language :).

Yeah, those are specified subject ones.  Not all schools require them.

But basically, they focus on a specific topic, and require more specific knowledge than the SAT Is do.

Yea, but you said the SATs weren't important.  And I was just stating for someone that wants to go to a school in the US, ACT or SAT is a requirement at many (At least SAT Is).  But it's like me saying the GCSEs are pointless, it just depends on where you want to go.

In the UK, sure. But the OP is from the US, where people do not take GCSEs. Either the SAT or ACT is required by most schools, with the more selective ones often requiring SAT II exams (2-3) as well.
