<p>So I just took a practice test off of PR and according to their scale, I got a 610. Is this scale accurate? Would my actual score be higher or lower? Are the real test questions easier or harder?</p>
<p>good question. someone please answer</p>
<p>princeton review is pretty right on with the real test. Get a TI-89~ 800 on math 2.</p>
<p>what do you need an 89 for? I'm considering buying one for the may lvl2 test but don't know what i'd use it for. my 84 is sufficient for my practice tests for now...</p>
<p>only use an 89 if you know how to use its many functions in time for the test. otherwise itll be useless</p>
<p>Hmmm. I wonder if I should get my son an 89. He has 83 right now and he is taking math 2 next month. I am really debating whether he should change it to June. He tried 2 practice test on princeton book. He got 760 on one and a low 600 on the second one. I don't understand how it could be so different.</p>
<p>Ti-83 should be more than enough; even your basic scientific (with trig and logarithmic functions) would be enough. Just make sure whatever calculator you use, that you are very comfortable with it; the last thing you want is to waste time trying to find the right buttons.</p>
<p>thanks... Saved myself some money.</p>
<p>ok wat the heck, i just found this sheet today in my PR book that said that the score on page 429 and 452 is inaccurate. and then they provided the real conversion table on the sheet. </p>
<p>so from what i can tell, it's pretty close to the conversion table from the Real SAT Subject Tests book. </p>
<p>Btw, my score actually bumped up 100 points because of this. I had a 610 according to their inaccurate score table and a 710 according to their accurate one. I still don't know if the difficulty of the problems are accurate though.</p>
<p>dunno..for my instance ti-89 saved a lot of time for me.. finished math 2 test in 30 mins..</p>
<p>my cousin finished it in 25 minutes and he had a ti 83...</p>
<p>^ Yeah, there's only so much time that a better calculator can save you, and that's only if your uber micro pro using that calculator!</p>
<p>You don't need a ti-89, especially if you've never really used one before. I and a number of other people I know got 800s with ti-83s/84s</p>
<p>can anyone list some functions that would be helpful in the ti-89</p>
