So. I have not had any biology classes since I was a freshman and I am now a senior. I want a minor in biology, so am planning to take the e subject test December 1. Unfortunately, I have yet to start studying and only have 3 weeks left. Do y’all think I can study enough to get above an 800 in 3 weeks? I own the Princeton Review study guide and have access to the Barrons one. What should I do? I am also planning to take the Math 2 subject test. That will require less studying, but I should still study. I have a 1510 SAT score, and really do not want my subject test scores to bring me down. Can someone tell me best how to study in time? Keep in mind, I have not taken a biology class in 3 years, so I remember little. I am currently in AP environmental science. That’s it. Please help!
No, because the max is 800
In terms of what you can potentially score, none of us knows, you study habits, your recall, etc. Use one of the review books, then take a practice test and go from there. Good luck
Oh, I meant above 700. My bad! Thank you for the advice though!
I was in the same situation. I took a bunch of practice tests (around 30) and after each one, I would look at each wrong answer to find what concept I didn’t understand and memorize all that info. It takes a while (maybe an hour or two a day) but within a month, I took Bio M and got an 800.
You can just use practice tests from various review books and college board. Don’t worry if the practice tests seem difficult; some books (like Kaplan) have much more information than required. However, if you can learn from them, the college board test will seem like a breeze. Don’t waste money buying all the books- you can just find a ton of practice tests from prep books in your local library.
Good luck:)
