<p>Barron’s Math II is notorious for being MUCH more difficult than the actual Math II test. Don’t buy this book if you’re not looking for an 800. It provides a thorough and excessive review of the material and 6 (overly hard) practice tests. I’ve heard of people getting 600’s on the practice tests who ended up with 800.</p>

<p>Are you kidding? I've taken 3 practice tests from the Barron's book so far and the diagnostic test, so basically 4 tests, and I have scored above 40 points on all of them, usually 44 or above, so basically 800 range. The only reasons for missing the 800 would be I made a stupid mistake, not 'not knowing how to do something and getting it wrong because of it'. Are these tests 'really' that much harder than the 'real' SAT Math 2? Because if so, I have an EASY 800 on the Math 2, but I can't believe that an 800 on the Math 2 is THAT easy to achieve? Seriously if you're in AP Calculus or even some precalculus class, you should be able to get at LEAST 700+, for anyone who scores lower than that, you're bad.</p>

<p>So basically this is the thread created specifically for you to blow your trumpet. It is very loud, I assure you.</p>

<p>Needs more condescension.</p>

<p>8/10, but remember, collegeconfidential is easy mode.</p>

<p>My knees are quivering.</p>

<p>It is time for you to stop practicing and go get that 800 on Math II.</p>

<p>^Agreed with above poster.</p>

<p>Not everyone is as adept as math as you may be. Have an open mind OP.</p>

<p>cool bro, that’s chill</p>

<p>Well I got an 800 on the Barron’s test while playing Modern Warfare 2. Now that’s a feat to be proud of.</p>

10

<p>Barron’s sent me a notice that if I had taken their test, I would have received an 800. So I played MW instead.</p>

<p>CC should have like buttons. Like Facebook.</p>

12

<p>I finished the entire book in a day without getting a single mistake.</p>

13

<p>Just got the scores back, 800 on Math II and 780 on Math I.</p>

14

<p>Only 780?!!</p>

15

<p>Yes I missed one. I said that 2 lines if you lay them on top of each other intersect infinitely many times, but I didn’t think that they become the same line and therefore don’t intersect. Oh well.</p>
