The SAT II Subject Test*

SAT II tests are one-hour subject tests in English, math, history, science and language designed to measure students’ knowledge of a particular subject matter. They are different from the SAT test in that the SAT test evaluates students’ reasoning skills rather than intelligence, whereas SAT II tests evaluate learned knowledge.

Because the SAT II tests are not required by all schools, students should check to see which (if any) SAT II Subject Tests are required by their desired college(s). The College Board recommends that students plan their high school curriculum around potential colleges and take the SAT II tests almost immediately following particular courses, even as freshmen and sophomores. This way, students will be able to recall information more easily.

Keep in mind, however, that even colleges that don't require Subject Tests for admission may still look at student's scores to gain more insight about their academic background.
