<p>I want to take the Physics, American History, and Literature Subject Tests, but I am wondering if it will be enough just to use my knowledge from my AP Classes with these subjects to pass the tests (based on the fact that these AP Classes are pretty good and teach you the material required). I don't think you'd need to know more than what a good AP American course teaches you to pass the test (and I'm in a pretty decent class).</p>
<p>You may need to study a little to get an 800, since the curve for a 5 is more generous than that for an 800. This applies to all of them, but more so on Literature (harder M/C questions than the AP test) and Physics (time crunched).</p>
<p>my friend did that for physics and it worked out fine</p>
<p>Self-studied AP World History and took the SAT World History Subject Test in June. 4 and 760, respectively. Although the material for both isn’t as ‘defined’ as that for science tests or anything, I would recommend still doing <em>some</em> work, especially practice tests, for the SAT II.</p>
<p>With AP Physics B, there are only a few topics you need to cover to do well on the test—rotational kinematics and relativity come to mind. With the Princeton Review book for the AP exam and the online SAT Physics Sparknotes guide, I got a 5 and an 800.</p>
<p>You pretty much learn everything you need to know for the SAT U.S. History exam by studying for the AP. I studied just for the AP and took the SAT II the day after without any more studying and got a 5 and a 760.</p>
<p>Good luck! :D</p>
<p>Well, for me, I took the US history subject test a day after I took the AP Test, so I studied for the both of them at the same time. Although, I studied for the MC and did not study for subject test the day after the AP test, it worked out pretty well. 770 on US history and a 5 on the Ap test respectively.</p>
