Is it possible to take SAT IIs as a sophomore?

<p>If so, would you recommend that for SAT II Biology? I'm currently taking AP Biology this year and was considering to looki into this (if possible, of course). </p>

<p>Or is it only open to juniors/seniors?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>You can take SAT IIs whenever you want. If you’re taking AP Bio as a soph and do well in it, pick up a prep/review book (someone else can tell you which ones are best) in February/March, take a practice test, and then study. I’d suggest taking the SAT II, if you decide to take it, in May or June so that you can study for both tests at once.</p>

<p>It is possible, and I highly recommend you take Bio the June after the AP test, as you’ll be fresh and have nothing else on your plate.</p>

<p>Always do the subject tests as soon as possible. What christiansoldier said is exactly what I was going to post. I’ll be taking AP Biology myself this year, but I have to take the subject test in November for college purposes.</p>

<p>Thank you so much for the all responses! I am planning on taking it in June (as recommended by my AP teacher, because she is planning to hold extra classes after the AP exam for review). </p>

<p>I’m just curious: how is the SAT II (for Bio) exam in comparison with the actual AP Test?</p>

<p>Of course you can take it. I took SAT Bio soon after I took AP Bio and that was a pretty good decision. There’s a rather high extent of overlap so if your AP course load is light, aim for a May sitting of the SAT Bio. It’ll also be a great warmup for the MCQ spammage that is AP bio.</p>
