Jump 100+ pts in a week for physics!!!help!

<p>Hey guys,</p>

<p>I am planning on taking the physics subject test in Oct(a WEEK from now!!!). but I don't really have that strong of a background in physics. I was only able to take a regular physics course(non honors) and that was a whole summer ago. I went over Kaplan over the summer just to learn all the new concepts and review old ones, and then I took my first PR practice test today and scored a 650.</p>

<p>I am getting really scared because the exam is in like a week, and this exam is my last shot for a good engineering sch bec. my gpa and other tests scores are avg. I need at least a 750+</p>

<p>I totally blanked out on electricity and sound and all the special relativity stuff... please can anyone who has taken the exam or a physics veteran give me some advice on increasing my score(like how to study effectively) and what to do this coming week. I know if I go back and review elec. and sound, I could go up by like 20pts, but its so much formulas and concepts to remember and I sometimes just forget the 5+ formulas dealing with electricity and vibrations while im learning sound.</p>

<p>what can I do?</p>

<p>Hmm, there really is no shortcut. You just have to spend a lot of time studying and reviewing. Can’t you take the test in November instead so you have more time to study? I would use Princeton Review and supplement with Sparknotes. Just read the material, and then read it again and again until you’re a pro.</p>
