For those who took the SAT II Physics

<p>whatever you do, DONT use barron's. It's horrible for preparing you for the test.</p>

<p>OK, so should I take the test after Physics B or should I wait till I do Physics C and THEN take it?</p>

Difficulty: Pretty hard, but a nice curve. I studied a little with the AWFUL Barron's book. I was aiming for 750, but I'm not re-taking for 10 points.</p>

<p>Does the PR book correspond well to the actual difficulty of the test?</p>

<p>Do you need to have taken a calculus based physics course for this? My son took a hs physics course last year that was weighted, but was not calculus based. He is trying to decide between this and chemistry, which he has had two years of hs, weighted, and currently in AP online.</p>

I studied the Kaplan book for about a week before the test and using it basically self-taught the last third of it. I was in a very large, very slow supposedly "honors" physics class. I consistently had the highest grade in the class, but we didn't cover nearly the topics needed for the subject test. I could have been more prepared, but it overall wasn't too bad. I was aiming for a 770 but like sishu7, I'm not retaking for 10 points.</p>

<p>good luck!</p>

Experience : I prepared by PR. But practice tests were so different from real test. Also my English skill was so bad and still it is. </p>

<p>I am gonna take this test again on November. Guys, do you have any book suggest to me?</p>

<p>i think just scanning through resnick-halliday "fundamentals of physics" is more than just enough</p>
