Not really preparation...more advice

<p>I intend to apply for the Ivy Leagues and the top notch universities in America. I do the International Baccalaureates and am predicted a 43(out of 45). Now, after researching through the various sites, most universities ask for 3 SAT IIs and most of them recommend Maths Level 2.</p>

<p>Because I want to do Political Sciences, I don't think it makes sense to take SAT IIs in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, US History (I dont do it) and of course, the languages that I don't know. Since I will be doing Maths Level 2, I won't do Level 1.</p>

<p>Now, that leaves me with 4 options for SAT IIs:</p>

<p>Literature (I do English A1 Higher Level so I am overprepared for this one)
Mathematics Level 2 (I do Mathematics Methods and am awesome in it so I am also very prepared)
French (I do French B Higher Level, more than enough)
Hebrew (I have private lessons ahead of this level)</p>

<p>I have to remove one of those, but I don't know which!</p>

<p>I mean, Literature and Maths are very important, whilst French and Hebrew are easy! Furthermore, I am also considering applying for universities in Israel and Canada/France so I could need both...</p>

<p>What do you guys think?</p>

<p>Final Question to not waste another post: Does anyone know any good preparation books for Hebrew SAT II? I am good but it is always good to know what is expecting me.</p>

<p>I do not know of a book, their may be one, but make sure you know Hebrew grammar for the test.</p>

<p>"Because I want to do Political Sciences, I don't think it makes sense to take SAT IIs in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, US History (I dont do it)"</p>

<p>I think you're wrong. Go ahead and take science SAT IIs if you're going to do well on them.
But anyway, you've already ruled out those tests, so whatever. </p>

<p>There's no need to "remove" one of the 4 tests you're considering. Take all of them and send the ones with the highest scores. Easy. SAT IIs are just an hour long...not really excruciatingly painful...so it's not too much trouble to take one extra.</p>

<p>I don't do Biology nor Chemistry at IB and even though I know enough to do the test, I feel more confident about the others. Physics could happen but...meh...</p>

<p>The problem is that we are only allowed to take up to 3 SAT IIs in a single test date...and I was kinda wanting to do it all in a single day or so on...</p>

<p>uh......</p>

<p>i really think you should take as many as POSSIBLE AS STILL TO WELL ON THEM.
i mean, a college ad officer is going to go like "wow this kid took 6 SAT II tests and did so well on them, i wont choice him!".</p>

<p>get my point</p>

<p>anways maybe you shouldnt take all three on one date, it might be too stressful....</p>
