2 of the schools require it, 8 of them either "recommend" or "highly recommend" them . If worst comes to worst, I can just send my bad SAT 2 scores and hope for the best.

really those scores are not everything. at this stage of the game, concentrate you effort on the application (especially those essays) would give you greatest benefits.

If I don't take the SAT 2s in Dec. I can't take them at all, because the you can't take the SAT 2 as a standby, which is what I would have to do for the SAT if I took it in November.
