How hard is Math IIC, really?

<p>I'm taking it Saturday, so for some review I decided to do the practice questions on Collegeboard's website. I easily got 27/28 right, and the one I missed was a silly mistake.</p>

<p>However, I decided to view some other practice materials I found online and a friend let me have his Barron's book. I got a 770 on the Barron's diagnostic test and got low 700s on the first two practice tests (just took them to see how I'd do). The later practice tests were so ridiculous that I didn't even do them because they seemed so much harder than the stuff on the CB website.</p>

<p>So, my question stands: how hard is it really? Do I need to cram, or should I be fine if I did that well on CB's online practice questions?</p>

<p>It really isn’t that hard. I took one practice test the Friday before, and I got an 800 pretty easily. As long as you had a precalculus course and you know how to use your calculator well, you should be able to do well. To make it even better, you don’t even have to get every one correct. You can get 4 or 5 wrong and still get an 800. Just make sure you’re working fast enough, especially on the beginning, easier ones, so that you do not run out of time for the harder ones.</p>

<p>Yeah, called up another friend who had the study guide from Collegeboard, took that practice test as well. Only missed 3 (2 of which were because I misread the question), so I got an 800 pretty comfortably. I think I’m good.</p>
