<p>I have 2 test days for EA one is for SAT I and the other for 3 subject tests.</p>
<p>Is it bad to take 3 tests at once? I took 3 tests on once in June and didnt do well. </p>
<p>If i take 2 tests at once, then i'm out for EA at most "prestigious" places.
So what's better: 2 SATII's at a time or 3 SAT IIs + opportunity for EA?
Gracias, friends! :D</p>
<p>GO FOR THE GOLD LIKE ME...and take 3. The reason you prolly did bad in june is cuz you had school work to deal with and 3 tests to study for. now you got a summer...and 3 tests is nothing...its pretty much review and some practice with practice tests. you can get 750 + on all your sat IIs if you study with not much distraction for a month. it won't be that bad...plus EA rocks if you really want to go to a certain school.</p>
<p>I'm going EA at MIT and I gotta take my SAT IIs in October and last chance SAT in november to bump up verbal past 750 from a 700.</p>
<p>i took 3 tests in january...it's not that bad if you're ready for them. just make sure u dont wait till the last second to prepare</p>
<p>aaah i need to take 3 tests in november... sucks.</p>
<p>It's not bad, it's just that you have to have the stamina for them. It's annoying how most of the people leave after 2 tests and you're the only one left for the 3rd... you know?</p>
<p>Doing 3 tests is manageable... 800, 770, 700 freshman year, no prep :p</p>
<p>Just don't freak out, and do the one you're least comfortable with first. That way, once you're done, it's out of sight, out of mind.</p>
<p>dude, taking 3 tests is just like taking the SAT I. SAT I= verbal, math, and writing which is equivalent to 3 SAT IIs. At least that's how I think of it.</p>
<p>lol xjayz... being stuck in the room alone with the proctor sounds like tons of fun!! :P</p>
<p>I will be taking 3 SAT II's in October, and I was very worried about this, too. I feel a bit better now, but I agree that sitting in the room alone with the proctor sounds like a more daunting task than the tests themselves!</p>
<p>Yeah, sitting in the room with a proctor sucks. I was the only one at my school taking 2, so I was in there alone with this craaazy old lady in the special-ed room, and we both had really bad allergies...</p>
<p>I took some SAT II's in May, and there were supposed to be five people in the room including me, but I was the only one who showed up, so I just sat there with the proctor uncomfortably for two hours.</p>
<p>I'm in the exact same bind, except I haven't taken them yet, and I'm just gonna do all 3 at once</p>
<p>i took 3 tests on the same day, and I ended up with an 800 on the last one I took (on all three actually). just take a history one last, as you aren't too terribly pressed for time in those and you can work at a nice, leisurely, mentally-fatigued pace. it worked for me.</p>
<p>Just take the easiest tests first, it's not that hard.</p>
<p>ohnoes don't take the easiet test first. Take it last.</p>
<p>Make sure you take your most computational test first (math), followed by your science, followed by history or Bio or langugage...somethign requiring little thinking but a lot of memory.</p>
<p>yeah do the hard ones first so you have them out of the way. and can relax on the easier ones at the end.</p>
<p>hey you guys are complaining about taking a 1 hour test with just you and the proctor in the class......i was the only person at my school taking AP french literature...thus it was one on one for about
FFFFFOOOOOOUUUUURRRRRRR (4) HOURS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>
<p>@Grad'06: Hey, at least you got breaks...USACO Open was 4 hours, but with no breaks...just me, the proctor, and 4 impossibly difficult problems...(And on top of that, 2 hours in, I discovered I was hungry. 3 hours in, I discovered I had to go to the bathroom. Arrgh! That explains the 17%...)</p>
<p>now imagine taking two ap tests on the same day in which you are the only one in the school taking the tests. 7 hours of testing, just you and the proctor, and a 10 minute lunch break between the tests. I had fun :)</p>
<p>I feel sick just thinking about it...how'd you do? My brain is fried after one...</p>
