Test Preparation SAT Subject Test Preparation

<p>and is it really worth taking if i got a 4 on the AP test?</p>

<p>If you do fine in AP test, I suggest that you should take the SAT II b/c they are generally the stuff that AP covers except some questions might be tricky.
SAT II also has a generous curve that can quarentee you at least a 650 if you know you stuff.</p>

3

<p>compared to other satIItests, sat II chemistry is pretty hard in terms of percentiles.</p>

4

<p>very very hard....so hard u wanted to cry in the beginning..(if u were like me and didn't realli prep) wish me luck!</p>

5

<p>i also got a 4 on ap chem but i haven't got my scores back yet for the sat 2 yet. my friend on the other hand got a 4 on the ap and got a 770 on the subject, so id say its worth it</p>

6

<p>hey guys, i decided to not take chem ap this year, how stupid of me, but i took regular chem last year, so my question is can i get at least a 630 with some studying? because i've already gotten accepted in to my school just want to exempt from taking chem I and getting in to chem II nex year. I don't really remeber the stuff but I'm sure it'll come back to me...</p>

7

<p>As i said, if you know your thing, you'd have no problem getting at least a 650</p>

8

<p>My friend got a 3 on AP chem exam, but a 790 on sat II chem....they're worlds apart.</p>

9

<p>Did he/she take it the same year?</p>

10

<p>really difficult!</p>

<p>I got a 5 on the AP chem national and a 730 on the SATII</p>

<p>I only got a 4 bio and 760 satII, so that puts it in perspective</p>

<p>However, I finished the class and didnt glance at any chemistry stuff for atleast a month so that was a long period of time with no review which probably made it harder</p>

11

<p>Pshaw! I’d be happy to get a 730.</p>

12

<p>Is the MC on the AP test very simular to the the SAT II?</p>

<p>I have a feeling I got alot(95 out of 100 or 75/80) right on the AP exam, and screwed up the Open ended</p>

<p>I dont know who discovered what or whatnot though</p>

13

<p>i got a 5 on the AP and a 760 on the SATII, they were pretty similar it just took me a while to warm up (I took the AP Chem final in the afternoon after the SATII day)</p>

14

<p>Im still happy with 730, im just saying that Chemistry is my strongest subject yet I got my lowest SAT score on it, so its a really difficult test atleast for my chem knowledge</p>

15

<p>Test isn't bad, it's the curve that is...</p>

16

<p>goldfish, he took it the fall semester after chem</p>

17

<p>i took the regular chem and got 730 last time in oct(oct's test is very hard)
and this time i retook it and should get a 780</p>

18

<p>Chem is pretty darned hard. Especially with those confusing Assertion-Reason type questions. You need to know how they work or else they'll get you (my chem teacher put assertion-reason questions on his tests. I love him!).</p>

<p>If you get 4 on AP, I say go for it. I got 780 taking Chem honors.</p>

<p>And true, the percentile is very rough.</p>

19

<p>i took chem for two years, and we didn't even get to acids and bases. needless to say, my teacher sucked. i had a private tutor (a former chem teacher at my school) with whom i spent about 12 hours (every free period). on my practice tests, i got a 550, then a 650. on the real sat ii i got a 720. it's difficult but buy the sparknotes book and study it. honestly, i think if you know that book, you'll get at least a 700. that's what i did, so....</p>

<p>btw sparknote is not a good pre book. lots errors.</p>
