Notes About the Subject Tests

• Students can take up to three SAT Subject Tests on a single test date.
•  
• Students cannot take the SAT Subject Tests and the SAT Reasoning Test during the same test administration.
•  
• Students must indicate which Subject Tests they plan to take when they register for a test. However, they can change which tests they take up to the test date—except for Language Tests with Listening.
•  
• Students may only use a calculator on the Subject Tests in Mathematics Level 1 and Mathematics Level 2. Some questions on both tests cannot be solved without a scientific or graphing calculator. Students who take these tests without using a calculator are at a disadvantage. A graphing calculator is recommended over a scientific calculator.
