<p>Let this thread to be the first discussion about the SAT II Biology December 2008.</p>

<p>I felt that the exam was so hard and tricky.</p>

<p>Only one question was copied exactly from Barron's Book</p>

<p>The one that asks about where does oxygen come during photosynthesis.</p>

<p>But nothing that came in the test was in any book.</p>

<p>I think it was all predictions.</p>

2

<p>hey... it was pretty easy right... both e and m were easy actually... but i forgot few things.. left 5 questions i guess...</p>

3

<p>I thought it was alright now that I look back on it. I can't remember any of the hard questions to look up though. Lol</p>

4

<p>hehe... i struggled a bit on the daphnia plankton question... and the snake question also...</p>

5

<p>Are you internationals? I did not have a snake question.</p>

6

<p>to me, today's biology is very hard; I already sent all my SAT i & II scores to
all the colleges I want to apply, I decided not to send SAT II Bio to colleges.</p>

7

<p>the beginning was hard, but the M part was quite easy IMO</p>

8

<p>It was harder than Barron's. :X</p>

9

<p>it was damn hard!!!! S H IT man, i was so scared! i omitted 4 tho. took M btw.</p>

10

<p>Yeah, I thought that the beginning of the test was pretty hard, but last 20 questions for the M section were relatively easy. None of the questions were insanely hard, though if you didn't know some specific things well enough, you should have been in a tight spot (like me).</p>

11

<p>Definitely harder than Barrons. There was so much less emphasize on animal function (the stuff I studied the most), that I was a little disappointed.</p>

12

<p>Guessed on 4 and took E. M was easier than E so prob E has higher curve. The core questions were really hard tho :(.</p>

13

<p>well, did u guys know when segregation occurs? it was a core question</p>

14

<p>there were so many experiment/data analysis questions! :[</p>

15

<p>.................</p>

16

<p>i did not know what a chaparral was :(</p>

17

<p>chaparral was the ones with the fire...its a spanish word, so i knew what it was :)</p>

18

<p>yeah left that one blank!</p>

19

<p>I got the chaparral one but what were the other challenging ones on the test?</p>

20
