Did 6/06 Biology have an awful curve or something?

<p>Thanks. I have only taken Honors Bio. I know other freshman who took the test and got 800's... in previous years. I'm taking AP Bio in Senior Year, and I also ready some forums that if you retake the test, it makes you look desperate and may hurt you rather than help you. In these respects, I'm leaning towards not taking it again.</p>

<p>Anyways, I'm taking AP Chem this year, and want to take SAT Chem, Phys, Math, and Chinese in the future, So it probably doesn't matter because I can get in the near 800's for them.</p>

<p>Xylem, I find it highly unlikely that a 790 would look anything other than good to top schools.</p>

<p>i omitted none and missed 7 and got a 760 when i thought i'd get a 780... o well... </p>

<p>i'm also a freshman who took honors bio and then took the sat ii... if you're not going to take ap bio until senior year, and want to take the bio sat, then it's best to take it right after the course, because you have the information in mind... </p>

<p>wow, i'm going to sound really really repetitive, but will schools like hyps look down upon anything 750+? are the subtle differences going to make a big effect? like i'm planning on taking a bunch more sat iis, but what if bio is one of my top three, will it look bad?</p>

<p>I can't read the minds of hyps adcoms. However, collegeboard does provide a 'score range' on your score report that they claim is a more accurate measurement of your ability. Whether colleges believe that is another issue. That range is plus/minus 30 points from your real score. So 770 [squiggly equal sign] 800 [squiggly] 740? </p>

<p>Bump?</p>
