Help SAT II Math

<p>Hey everyone, I'd like some advice for which math SAT II I should take. I've always been in honor math courses throughout school and am a B+/A- student. However, I haven't done so well in Hons Pre Calc this year (B). I asked my math teacher, and she said that I should take the Math IIC because I've been taking honors math courses, but I'm not that confident in my math skills. I also hope to get into a competitive school. So, which SAT II Math should I take?</p>

<p>If you study, you should have no problem with iic. The curve is much nicer and colleges would like it better.</p>

<p>If you want to go to a top school then IIc</p>

<p>Thanks so much for the comments. I guess I better start studying! (argh)</p>

<p>Buy barron's and meylani and you should be fine.</p>

<p>Thanks for the advice, stix. Is the Kaplan one not that good? I have the 2004-2005 version. Maybe it's time for me to invest in more prep books...</p>

<p>I bought the 2005-2006 one when I was studing for the june test. I found it to be semi-helpful but there were way to many errors. Everything in that book was covered in barrons. But if you feel you need to, go ahead. I guess that it helped me on the topics I didn't know and made barron's easier to understand. Plus there is practice. So if you have the money, why not?</p>

<p>Thanks! =D</p>

<p>so is math iic the way to go?</p>

<p>definitely is</p>

<p>BUY MEYLANI!!! DON't listen to gcf101. Meylani helped me more than barron's!</p>

<p>hahah... buy meylani, no dont buy, buy!!!, no dont buy, buy!!!, no dont buy, buy!!!,no dont buy, buy!!!, no dont buy, buy!!!,no dont buy, buy!!!, no dont buy, buy!!!,no dont buy, buy!!!</p>

<p>stix2400, if you were mathly proficient to deal with Kaplan, which is riddled with errors, you probably was not deferred by Meylani's.
SAT takers vary as to how well they can spot mistakes, how much it affects their level of self-confidence, and how much they need good explanations, which are virtually non-existent in Meylani books.
I used Meylani questions, and some are very good, some are way too hard or labour intensive for a real test, and I don't need solutions or answers most of the time. Not everybody wants this way of prepping.</p>

<p>isnt that the case for barrons too?</p>

<p>true, but 10x less errors and there are no incorrectly stated questions.
detailed solitions make difference for many preppers too.</p>

<p>10x less errors HA!!!!!!!! Meylani has mabey 10 errors in the book! Even if gcf101 was right about the book (I'm not saying I agree with him), still buy it. Even "bad" books can still help some.</p>

<p>aaaaaah i dunno what to buy now!!</p>

<p>Buy barron's and meylani and study sparknotes online (and real sat II but save that test for last). After doing that I found the real sat II test to be really easy and scored a 790 on the real thing :mad: If you need more books then buy them.</p>
