<p>Is it too late to sign up/take the December SATII's?
Are the January SATIIs too late to send to colleges for senior year?
Is two weeks enough time to prep for MathI and MathII?</p>
<p>Thank you</p>
<p>EDIT:
my SAT reasoning math is a 780. I did well in Precalc and i'm doing pretty well in AP calc AB this year. How should I expect to fair on these tests? I'll most likely be taking a practice on wednesday. I'm not sure how much pre-calc i actually remember, but a lot of it is applied in ap calculus, correct?</p>
<p>Sorry for so many questions Dx, but thanks for any replies, i'm kind of freaking out over this</p>
<p>Hm, okay well I just tried to sign up for the December test on collegeboard, but I missed the deadline. How would I go about testing as a standby?</p>
<p>dont sign up for both math tests theyll only look at the ii one. and its pretty much meaningless if you just take one subject test bc the scores that recommend just one are just a joke to the upper schools if you were thinking so</p>
<p>Pre-calc is like AP Calc??? Hmm…well definitely not how it was taught at my school but it may be different everywhere. I didn’t learn anything in pre-calc…and its supposed to be an introduction to calculus o_O haha…stupid…</p>

<p>…really? I’ve never heard this before. I thought MathI and II were different. How lame… I don’t know what other one to take then. I’m only good at math <_></p>
<p>Edit: and yes CrazedOutBoy, I must agree with you…at my school precalc felt very slack, especially in comparison to ap calc, but i still feel like i learned something. And i’m surely learning a lot in ap calc - does mathII involve calc?</p>
<p>Also, here are the schools I’m applying to:
Clemson University
Vanderbilt University
Oxford College of Emory
University of Chicago
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Emory University
Duke University
University of South Carolina
New York University
Georgia Institute of Technology
University of Georgia</p>
<p>Duke is the only school on my list that “requires” SATII’s, however Vandy, emory, etc. “recommend” SATII’s? Would it be bad to only take 1 in this case? I fear the only Subject test i’d do well on are the math one(s).</p>
<p>Math II is generally considered harder, but I can’t remember doing much integrating (maybe one three or four derivatives) in the Oct. test. However, iirc, Math II tends to be much more lenient than Math I (and the SAT Math I); you can make quite a few mistakes and still get an 800. I don’t believe it requires anything more than basic integration/differentiation, some knowledge of ellipses/hyperbolas (though that can be done on your calculator) and a little reasoning (of course, you need to be good at algebra - this is probably where you’ll really make mistakes).</p>
<p>Take a practice test if you’re concerned; if you’re a math-person or decent at math, you should be able to manage an 800 with under a week of practice (but, obviously, you should start ASAP), sometimes with no practice at all.</p>
<p>^What? There is definitely no calculus on the Math II SAT subject test. Not on the October test, or any other test. There might be a question about limits, but no integration or differentiation.</p>
<p>Most of your studying (if you have a good understanding of algebra including conics, sequences, matrix operations, and a few other obscure topics that tend to show up) should be on trig. Trig identities and properties show up on probably 1/4 - 1/3 of the math 2 questions.</p>
<p>Maybe one question on limits, but thats the only calc you’ll find on the test.</p>
