Math Level 2 - October 2014

<p>@Interact‌ Just PITA this question. Set x=1 and n=4. I believe the answer is one of the last two choices.</p>

<p>curve will probably be a 44 or 43 = 800. What was the lowest curve given on one of these tests</p>

<p>I believe I left three blank, and I’m guessing that I missed three of four. I’m hoping for a 770 or above, but I’m really not sure at this point…this was honestly a tougher test than the Barron’s tests too, which is saying something.</p>

<p>Personally I didn’t find it hard. It was about on par with Kaplan’s if not slightly easier. I’m guessing 44 = 800 maybe 45 even.</p>

<p>Ahhhhh how did I miss the f(-1) = -1, f(7) = ?
Uhhhh hello. It’s symmetrical around x=3.
|3-4| = |3-7|. So f(-1) = f(-7) = -1
Face palm.</p>

<p>Hopefully it’s curved to 43.</p>

<p>If any of you are applying to the UCs, do you know if the UCs require to see ALL of your subject test scores? I know that they require all of your SAT Reasoning scores, but since SAT subject tests are optional, I was wondering if they’d ask to see all of your sittings. I think I got a low score for this sitting, and I’d rather not send it in. :confused: </p>

<p>My Math 2 didn’t go well at all. I’ll barely get a raw score of 30 so I’m thinking of giving Math 1 in December instead because the universities I’m applying to give a choice of either Math 1 or 2. If anyone’s taken Math 1, please tell me how hard or easy it would be to get a good score on it compared to yesterdays test. I know that the content’s easier but the scoring curve and the style of questions?</p>

<p>@SameerHussain Content-wise, Math Level 1 is definitely much easier than Math Level 2. However, I hear that the curve is also much harsher for Math Level 1; simply because it IS so easy. Which means getting a couple of questions wrong is much more detrimental for Math Level 1 as compared to Math Level 2. Also, if you’re aiming for the more competitive universities, Math Level 2 is certainly still the way to go. Just my two cents. :)</p>

<p>@audrey2412‌ , would you say it’s similar to SAT 1’s Math? And you’re right that universities prefer Math 2. But I just don’t think I’d be able to get a great score on Math 2. I used Barrons (which is way harder), but there were more than a few questions on the real test that I simply had no clue about.</p>

<p>I ommited 12 questions because I didn’t understand them. Otherwise the other questions I knew what I was doing. If I got everything else right, what would a 12 ommited score be in the ballpark of?</p>

<p>Around 750</p>

<p>^yeah that’s a raw score of 38 so that should be a 750.</p>

<p>Wow thats a serious curve. </p>

<p>What do you guys think the curve for a 700 will be like? I omitted 11 and probably got 5/6 wrong</p>

<p>what were the answer choices for the 8 and 3 one </p>

<p>Wanted to say that math 2 has an extremely lenient curve. I believe i missed around 6 (maybe less) and omitted 2, and finished with an 800.</p>

<p>@whartonnothyps do you think I can pull off a 700 with 11 omit 5/6/7 wrong?</p>

<p>@AnotherPSEOKid‌ there’s a slight chance if you got 5 wrong, but 6 or 7 would be pushing it. I took the test for the first time in June and had 8 omit with 7ish wrong (so many dumb mistakes ugh) and got a 690. This time around I felt better, had 7 omit but very confident with all but a few of my answers, hoping to break 750, but 700 would be just fine lol. I hope you do end up with the 700! </p>

<p>@justkt9314 thanks! I took both blue book tests the week of the test and was consistent in ~10-13 omit and between 3-4 wrong, I said 6/7 for a worst case scenario. Good luck to you</p>
