<p>I have the Barrons Math II book, 9th edition, and I took the diagnostic test at the beginning and scored a 650. I haven't really prepared yet or taken any timed tests (except this one). Can I get an 800 in October? How should I study?</p>
<p>Barron’s Math II practice exams are notoriously hard. I’ve heard of some who scored 650-700 on the practice tests and got an 800 on the real thing. Don’t let that get your hopes up too high, but I wouldn’t let a 650 on the diagnostic worry you.</p>
<p>I didn’t get my real test back yet, but I got a 650 on one Barrons test and a 680 on the other and then I got a 790 on the Sparknotes practice test. I feel like I got a 750+ on the real thing but I’ll tell you for sure on the 24th.</p>
<p>Throw away Barron’s if you are looking for realistic practice tests that represent the difficulty of the real exam. Instead, do some of the tests from PR and Peterson’s.</p>
