I bombed the math level 2 today

Test Preparation SAT Subject Test Preparation
1

<p>The moment that proctor said 20 more minutes, my mind froze and i was in a panic, i tried to rush it but then i looked at the problems and could no longer understand them. Ugh i ended with leaving 15 blank. Now asumming that i probably got a few or a bunch wrong, my score doesn't look too good.
I'm probably going to retake it.
Any tips on not blanking out and having a panic?</p>

<p>I also realized that 20 minutes is actually alot of time beucase it is but my mind didn't think so. If only i was able to concentrate with worrying about the time, i probably would of been able to answer the questions.</p>

2

<p>how do you usually score?</p>

3

<p>I'm the same way, but after a minute, I'm usually able to half comprehend the questions. I also think it's because in the back of my mind, I know the last 10 questions are going to be difficult.</p>

4

<p>Any1 else think this Math Level 2 test was harder than usual? :(</p>

5

<p>When i took practice tests, i usually got around 700 range, nothing lower than 700, its just that when im at home, i'm in a calm environment and also there isn't a proctor telling the time.</p>

<p>I suppose i need to get more used to the tense atmosphere when taking SAT's</p>

6

<p>I thought it was really hard, rjacob
the test had a lot of problems that didn't really have to do with the topics in the review book i used</p>

7

<p>yeah. it was hard...</p>

8

<p>Some of the questions were just stupid.</p>

<p>What is the amplitude of -5Sin(x/2+1)?</p>

<p>I know the amplitude is the number in front of the Sin, but i didn't know whether it was -5 or 5. I chose -5 and i looked at a precalc book and i realized it is the l-5l=5. This sucks</p>

9

<p>it was the absolute value of 5.</p>

10

<p>DAMNNNNNNNN i put -5</p>

11

<p>I think I skipped 15 questions too. Maybe 13. I probably got a lot of the questions wrong also. I'm wondering if I should cancel my score or not. Meh. -_-</p>

12

<p>that's like a 700. why would you cancel?</p>

13

<p>I skipped 7 and missed 2. That will probably be a 740. Im gonna cancel. I got a 800 on my chem. I was hoping for above 760. :(</p>

14

<p>canceling a 740? haha. way to be ridiculous.</p>

15

<p>crystal, how many did you leave blank?
if i got a 740 on that i will CRY for joy</p>

16

<p>I'm not sure if it's going to be 700 or 690. ;~;</p>

17

<p>Ughhh, I bombed too. I HAD A STOMACH ACHE THE ENTIRE FREAKING TIME. I finally just went to the bathroom 40 minutes in and made myself throw up. It was hell.</p>

<p>I skipped the last five questions and rushed 3-4. I'm kind of confident on the rest of the questions. Do you think I can still make a 780+?</p>

18

<p>You can skip like 10 questions and still get around a 760 (assuming you answered all the others correctly).</p>

<p>I thought this test was much harder than the blue book tests...bleh!</p>

19

<p>guys, with the sine question, the answer was just 5, right? or was there anythying like |5| in the choices that I overlooked? 5 is correct, right? I couldn't stand another mistake, it was soo difficult:D</p>

20

<p>I definitely thought today was harder than any of the practice tests that I have taken, I left 10 blank but I am pretty confident that I got everything else right. There were a lot of topics on the test that I felt were not things that were covered in any of the books. </p>

<p>The standard deviation question i didnt know, also the rectangle defined with (0,p) (-p,0)....
Also the log question, logxN=y logY=nS x^st =
or something like that, does anyone know the answer to that one?</p>
