<p>Hi guys could you please tell me where (page/chapter) the information about predicting chemical reactions is located in the Barron’s book? Thanks.</p>
<p>How close is the 1998 exam to the present day one? I got -0 on it :D. I’m guessing this would translate to at least 750+?</p>
<p>@generalDanier, the test has become easier since then. That would be a 800 for sure.</p>
<p>Awesome. How do you think the NoID exam compares? I found it reasonably more difficult (I got like a 760 or 770).</p>
<p>So Sjsharks what do you think I’d get? I got a 77.5 (I think it rounds up to a 78 or 800) on the 1994 and a 800/760 on two sparknotes tests too.</p>
<p>Do we need to know all of the qualitative test stuff for identifying different substances that Barron’s includes? I really hope not…</p>
<p>Getting nervous for the test, but I’ve been doing pretty well on practice tests, generally between 790-800 on Barrons, Princeton, and Review tests, but I’m getting screwed over on lab questions about setups I’ve never seen before. Does anyone know a good resource to consult for these lab questions</p>
<p>@cherryblossom Qualitative aspects have come up on the practice subject tests that I’ve taken, but nothing to the extent of Barron’s. Just know your ion colors, flame test colors, bond characteristics, ect. Even if a tough qualitative question pops up, if you skimmed through those parts in Barron’s, there’s a good chance you’ll remember something on the spot.</p>
<p>is the barrons score conversion sheet accurate? like if you miss 10, then you can still get a 780 according to barrons… but i’m not sure if that is true for the real collegeboard tests</p>
<p>The Barrons curve is more lenient than the real one, however, the curve suits the difficulty level of the tests because they are much harder than the ones administered by college board. If Barrons tests had the same curve as CB, they would be HIGHLY demoralizing.</p>
<p>And just a note, the number one qualitative thing that you must know is that copper (II) ions are a distinctive aqua blue color. I’ve seen this on so many practice tests (and on the real thing that I took in May!)</p>
<p>I received an 800 as well and I did about the same thing as this guy. Barrons is highly accurate, so whatever you get on Barrons is about the same for what youll get on this test. I got 680,780,780,720,800 on practice tests and started studying about two weeks before. The actual questions will be a breeze if you take the practice tests for Barrons seiously</p>
<p>saving this guide ~</p>
<p>uumm… i’m actually going to study for this for the whole summer xD. plus others so yup, I think a longer method would benefit me.</p>
<p>I just bought my book today… along with other books. My mom was ****ed at me, so I can’t buy anymore of them o_0</p>
<p>Please make a Math Level 2 guide if you haven’t already! Thank you.</p>
<p>i’m fine with over a 700+… Thanks for the guide :D</p>
<p>@asianeekamkee, Well if your going to study for the entire summer go for that 800. If you have the whole summer what you could do is just buy as many tests as you can get your hands on. Thats really all you can do.</p>
<p>I’m planning to self-study for the SAT II math II and chem. My math foundation is shaky, and I have never learned chem in my life. I’m also self-studying for AP chem. I’m planning to take the AP chem exam in June most likely, and I only have Barron’s (and the PR for AP, but I’ve been told that the AP and SATIIs are extremely different). If I study for the AP, and start studying for the SAT II about 5 days before, should that suffice for an 800?</p>
<p>(I did self-study for AP/SAT II bio and got a 5/800, but I have a feeling that chem will be more math and critical thinking than hardcore memorization…)</p>
<p>@gomdorri I took the AP Chem class coupled with some pretty hardcore self-studying. If you can do well on the AP exam, about 2 weeks of prep will get you a good score on the SAT II.</p>
<p>@gomdorri However, AP chemistry is a very challenging course that will require much time if you wish to self study it. If you can do that, the SAT II will be cake.</p>
