<p>anyone else have trouble finishing barron’s tests?</p>
<p>I didn’t have trouble finishing them, I had trouble getting over 700 :P</p>
<p>What did you mean by the vertex of ellipses?</p>
<p>@jubilant: I can usually get 35-40 questions done on the Barron’s within the time limit :P</p>
<p>Say the ellipse equation is as follows:</p>
<p>(x-3)^2 (y+2)^2
-------- + --------
64 100</p>
<p>The center is at (3, -2). The foci c goes by the equation c^2 = a^2 - b^2. Therefore c = 6.</p>
<p>Edit: idk how to format the equation better 
You can probably look up the info on google and get a better explanation.</p>
<p>Okay so Im kinda freaking out right now. Ive done over 10 practice tests but ive only been able to finish on time for sparknotes and princeton. I have to skip like 10 problems to finish barrons on time. And I can’t get above 700 on barrons but I got 760 on princeton and 790 on sparknotes. What do you think I’ll get on the actual test? I really really want an 800 ):</p>
<p>Can someone PLEASE explain Linear Regression and Standard Deviation?</p>
<p>Also Ellipse, Hyperbola, and Parabola. And their foci, eccentricity, and directrix (for parabola).</p>
<p>can someone help me what do we need to know about matrices? i never learnt them school.</p>
<p>I need an opinion.
I took Math II in January. I did worse than I wanted (750), which I know is a fine score, but I’m planning on applying to Ivies and the like. I haven’t had time to study for the test, but I’m definitely taking Chemistry tomorrow and maybe French. Should I take Math II as well?</p>
<p>I know only I can really tell, but I’d like other people’s advice.</p>
<p>For ellipses, how do u tell which term is A and which is B?</p>

<p>^^Please tell me what you think. Is it just that the barrons test are really hard or am I just dumb? xP</p>
<p>does anyone know what the common CURVE is for these tests? Particularly, tomorrows?</p>
<p>Is it usually curved to raw score of 43? 44? 45? 46?</p>
<p>I don’t think you should take it if you haven’t prepared… just my opinion :/</p>
<p>@ Connie: You’re around the same place I am in terms of practice tests, and I have no idea… but the adrenaline will push us to that 800 
I promise</p>
<p>@ Sarah: Nobody knows what the curve will be tomorrow, and it shouldn’t matter, what difference will it make if we knew what the curve was?</p>
<p>thanks(:
I really hope I get an 800 cause I didnt do so well on the Bio Sat II so I need this one. Hopefully, theres a low curve. But do a lot of people take in June? Cause the May curve for Bio was reallly high and I was thinking that it was cause a lot of people take it in May.</p>
<p>It was rather easy! Hope the curve is generous nonetheless.</p>
<p>Time to get some rest Good luck everyone!</p>
<p>I skipped one and was unsure about 1. Lets say I get an additional 3 wrong due to careless mistakes, and worse case scenario: I get 4 wrong 1 omit, would I most likely still end up with a 800?</p>
<p>Got back from testing a while ago. This test was probably the easiest collegeboard test I took in my life. </p>
<p>@iPacman: It’s very likely, unless the curve isn’t generous enough.</p>
<p>Didn’t have a graphing calculator
Was happy to see I wasn’t negatively affected by it at all…</p>
<p>do you think i should know linear regression and/or standard deviation? o_O</p>
