<p>How much harder are Dr. Chung's practice exams? I just took my first exam today and got a 640. I'm taking the actual SAT II Math 2C in two weeks, and I'd really like an 800.</p>
<p>Ok I don’t have Dr.Chung’s. I’ve heard it’s hard. I’ve been studying with Barrons. I’ve heard Barrons tests are also harder than the real one. Do you want to trade one if you don’t have Barrons? I’m curious about Chung’s. but it’s expensive and it’s too late to buy it to make it worthwhile.</p>
<p>I already have Barron’s, actually. I used Barron’s last time and only got a 750 on the actual thing. I really want a 790-800 this time, so I’m using Chung.</p>
<p>teamrocketgrunt, how do you compare chung’s with barrons? which one is harder? or are they comparable?</p>
<p>They’re both pretty rigorous, but Dr. Chung’s tests seem slightly more realistic than the Barron’s tests. The Barron’s tests focus more on the content itself, whereas Chung focuses more on reasoning/manipulation of the content to get a desired result, which is what the SAT II felt like.</p>
<p>I used Barron’s and Chung’s, both were WAY harder than the actual, though in different ways. Chung’s felt like the algebra was harder, whereas barron’s had really difficult counting/probability type problems (in my opinion Chung was better). </p>
<p>Before taking the test, take the two tests in the official study guide as morale-boosters so you realize the actual math 2 is way easier (unless you already took them). </p>
<p>I got below 750s on all my practice tests (except one chung test that I went way over time, and got 780), but got 800s on the official ones, and 800 on the actual.</p>
<p>Dr.Chungs and Barrons are way harder than the actual test. I used PR and got 800, the practice tests were about right.</p>
<p>problem is there are only two sample tests in PR.</p>
<p>Chung has twelve.</p>
<p>What do you guys think we should start scoring in Chung’s to get an 800 on the real test? Sorry for bumping this thread; I wasn’t in the mood to make a new one.</p>

Depends on the test that you’ll get on the test date. I scored around 640s on Chung and made an 800 on the actual.</p>
