<p>To take or not to take...that is the question. I'm not a native speaker of Chinese but I'm in my third year of taking it as my language class at school. I work really hard in class and get good grades but I don't know whether or not it's worth me taking the SAT II and risking getting a bad score. It's a hard language to pick up as a non-native speaker and so I cant speak as much after taking Chinese III as kids who take like Spanish III can. The only thing is my Chinese teacher really wants me to take it and, since I want to major in international relations, I would really like to hav an SAT II in a language. Do you think it's worth taking the risk? Are there even any prep materials for it to help me study?</p>
<p>Buy the REAL sat book that has actual administered tests. Take the Chinese SATII's and see what you get, decide from there</p>
<p>you have to be sure u can get perfect or close bc most takers are chinese and score perfect. so if u get 790, for example, u'd be already dropped to the 40-50 percentile. but colleges might take your being non-native speaker into consideration. yes, do try the practice tests.</p>
