<p>I didn’t take the test but I’m curious if they had any questions pertaining to the physical properties of elements. </p>

<p>For example -
This element smells like foot
Sodium
Carbon
Footorium</p>

<p>Obviously the sample question is stupid but those questions messed me up when I took the test.</p>

<p>You had to take AP chem to get 800?? I didn’t and I got 800 lol! my, didn’t know i can be a chem olympiad too</p>

463

<p>VeryPractical: No, I did not have to take AP Chem just to get an 800. I meant that after being in my AP Chem class the subject test became very easy. In fact, my teacher said anyone could get an 800 on it after just taking a first year of honors chemistry.</p>

<p>@wynter: i used 2010-2011 PR edition to prep for test…i made flashcards and everything for the Q’s i got wrong…idk what went wrong:(</p>

465

<p>Hmm…maybe try the AP Exam prep book? I also have the PR AP Chem book and although I didn’t find it much of a help for the AP exam, maybe thats what helped me on the SAT II - I didn’t really do anything in class, so I’d say the majority of the questions I got right were because of either princeton review book.</p>

466

<p>i got an 800</p>

467

<p>Wow so many 800 on this thread! I got a 790.</p>

468

<p>@Apoc314</p>

<p>found this thread a tad late…</p>

<p>800 sat2 and 5 on ap exam</p>

<p>In my opinion, this years sat2 chem was alot easier than the practice tests in the barron’s prep book i had… i thought i wouldve got a 4 on the ap exam, but i guess b/c it was hard, the curve was large.</p>

<p>note: im ap chem student, and my teacher teaches stuff way beyond ap level =o. so my class is quite hard</p>

<p>bump</p>

470

<p>i actually thought it was the opposite. the ap chem felt super easy while the sat ii felt harder. the sat ii is more specific, if you ask me.
5 on ap exam 770 on ii</p>

471

<p>then again… maybe since i self-studied chem, i didn’t learn the specifics that normal ap chem students should/wouldve encountered :/</p>

472

<p>Got an 800 yay but the one i needed to do well on i got a 720… Life is so not fair</p>
