<p>ya well in three more months the sat dates start.
i have no experience in physics what so ever and i plan on taking the sat in physics.
what books(or any material) should i get and in what order should i use it?</p>
<p>I started preparation for the SAT Physics a month before the test with barely any prior knowledge. I had been taking an IB physics course from a TERRIBLE teacher and did not learn anything from her and had to rely on my self-teaching abilities and focus. In that month of prep, I was able to score a 770. The SAT physics test is easy in that it has a very lenient curve (you can miss 10 and still get an 800 I believe). However, it spans a wide range of knowledge, but doesn’t go too far in depth despite how much information it covers.</p>
<p>GET THE PRINCETON REVIEW guide. Read ALL of it. The practice tests are pretty realistic but you’re going to also need the official practice test from Collegeboard’s big blue book of subject tests. If you want additional help, Kaplan’s explanations are a bit more comprehensive than PR’s, but don’t do their practice tests because they are easier than the actual test. I’ve heard that Sparknotes SAT Physics prep is good, but I didn’t really use it much. You should be fine with just PR and the one official practice test. COMMIT to preparation. I started prep really late and probably should have started earlier to get an 800. You’ve got 3 months, so get on your reading ASAP! Good luck!</p>
<p>well is the princeton review good for people with no experience at all, or do you need some basic knowledge in physics to start reading it?</p>
<p>I wanted to know this too. Are you sure the princeton review is ALL we need? If this is true, then I will absolutely get it. I am taking physics C, but I would like to take the test in November (barely any physics knowledge since its only 2 months in.)</p>
