<p>I am wondering how common it is to take the SATIIs before the SAT I itself?</p>
<p>My cousin’s son took SAT II math before he takes SATI. He’s in 10th grade. got 800 in SAT MathII.</p>
<p>I did. They don’t relate at all. I took Physics and Math II before ever taking the SAT.</p>
<p>I took the chemistry SATII before I took the SAT.</p>
<p>I took SAT II bio in 9th Grade. Chem and Math II in 10th Grade.
First SAT I was in 11th Grade.</p>
<p>EDIT: ^ That is the exact order I did my tests in (though at different grades for some).</p>
<p>I took 3 SATIIs before I took my SAT. They really have nothing to do with each other.</p>
<p>I did SAT II Chemistry and Math Level II way before my SAT.</p>
<p>Bio m freshman year no AP class: 730</p>
<p>Chem Sophomore year no AP class: 750</p>
<p>Math 2 with Precal/Ap Cal AB class: Aiming for an 800.</p>
<p>Math I end of freshman year
Math II and Bio end of sophomore year
SAT I january of junior year
Chem end of junior year</p>
<p>It is very common. Just take the SAT 2s right after you take an AP class and test. If you take any APs freshman or sophomore years, it is a no brainer. Also, it makes the SAT I a little less stressfull since you have gone through a couple of sittings in a similar venue.</p>
<p>I took SAT II first: Chemistry and Math Level II on October 2009. Then November, SAT I.</p>
<p>SAT II first at the end of my sophomore year. I took AP world history that year and took the world history subject test. I also took SAT II math IIC in october 2009. THEN I took the SAT I for the first time in january 2010.</p>
<p>glido is right. you should take relevant SAT 2’s right after you take the AP’s. that way you don’t have to study that much more - except getting familiar with a new test format/feel.</p>
<p>I took Bio at the end of my freshman year after regular Bio. I just took Bio again as well as Lit in Janurary of my junior year (this year). I then took the SAT I in March of this year.</p>
<p>I took SAT Korean and SAT Math IIC before SAT I.
I don’t think it really matters which one you take first. As long as you’re ready :)</p>
<p>I did. I only took the Math II (770) though.</p>
<p>(I’m taking 2-3 more in June)</p>
<p>I did. Math 1 750, Physics 760, Chemistry 720 (yucks)</p>
<p>Math II/Chem (800/760)</p>
<p>I took SAT II Latin (580) after my sophomore year, and SAT II Math II (800) in October. Taking the real SATs in January.</p>
<p>Yep. I took the SAT 2 US History right when I got out of the class so it was fresh in my mind. Didn’t take the SAT 1 for another six months.</p>
<p>I’ve taken six subject tests and haven’t taken SATI yet.</p>
