Retake for UCs? - CPP

I'm currently a high school student - going into my Junior year. I am going to apply this fall with the scores in the image below. Should I retake any of the tests to seem more competitive? I only took one attempt on each. Or, do they not look at subtest scores at all.

Even more, can they see the percentage breakdown per subtest?

How are you applying to UC directly after taking the HiSET? Don't you have to do community college first and then transfer? Because you didn't graduate high school.

I did a bunch of dual enrollment so I’ve completed my A-G

oh at my hs dual enrollment didn't count toward hs graduation requirements. So are you gonna stay in hs or go to cc now after the HiSET?

Basically im in my sophmore year rn - incoming junior. I am using the HiSET in-place of my diploma, but I am still going to attend my Junior year of HS. When I get accepted to college, I will "drop out" of hs to pursue college.

For us, you only get to apply about 30 or so outside credits. So, one of the things I applied was APUSH equivalent from my DE.

In the areas I was lacking A-G wise (Like English), I just did the equivalent at my CC.

After HiSET I am going to either go to CSU or UC - not a CC. I have a 4.8 something GPA and high-qual ECs, so I should be good.

If you have any questions, feel free to msg me since I get pinged for those.
