<p>I'm planning to take the SAT II lit in december and was wondering about the curve...is it lenient so that I can afford to skip the ones that I'm not confident of??</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>It's a pretty harsh curve, because Literature doesn't require any "technical" knowledge like a science does. </p>
<p>That said, whether or not you can skip some is dependent on the score you desire. If you want 800 you can't skip any. If you want 750 it's ok to skip some, 700 definitely</p>
<p>^word. Literature has the lowest percentile of test-takers scoring 800s. </p>
<p>Basically, for Math 2, if you get an 800, you're with another 8% of the test-takers.</p>
<p>If you make an 800 on Lit (yay!), you're in the 99.9+ percentile. It's ridic'</p>
<p>:D</p>
<p>EDIT: I just hit Senior Member!!!!! <em>pats self on back</em></p>
<p>How many can you miss and still get a 800?</p>
<p>Approximately 2. lol.</p>
<p>No, -5=800 on lit</p>
