800 in SAT II Chemistry

Test Preparation SAT Subject Test Preparation

<p>I was doing the practice tests in the Barron's book and I'm scoring in the 800 range. however in the tests anything grom 75-85 is considered a 800 and I usually get a score in the lower end of the spectrum. Has anyone found the barrons ranges accurate?
Is the actual tests that much easier than the Barrons, as I've heard we're only allowed 3/4 mistakes for an 800 in the official one.
Is barron's mistaken , or is their score accurate?
And if anyone did get an 800 , or close in the chemistry tests, any tips?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>bumping this, I would like to know too</p>

<p>The official SAT Subject Test Study Guide says a raw score of 82-85 is an 800.</p>

<p>The actual tests for chemistry are only slightly easier than the Barron's tests. But again, only slightly, whereas the math IIC is much easier than Barron's. But I just hated chemistry, so perhaps I have a biased opinion. Someone else will have to agree.</p>

<p>you should be fine with an 800 on barron's tests, which are much harder than those of any other publisher's. I repeatedly scored 740-780 on princeton review and got a 770 on the actual test.</p>

<p>if you're getting 800s on barrons, you should be fine. i got 780s on the tests and ended up with a 790 on the real thing.</p>

<p>I had a 690 on real sat2 practice book the week before. Looked over all the mistakes, actually READ the directions on the correlation questions and got a 790 on the real thing.</p>

<p>Does Barron's book cover the whole syllabus?</p>

<p>One terrible thing aboutBarron is that the format and style os tests is exactly same for all the four tests..</p>

<p>btw, how do u people tackle the true-false so well?</p>
