<p>For my SAT II's I want to take it easy. I'd rather have my SAT II's strenghten my app rather than make it worse. Out of the 5 following which 3-4 should I take? Which ones shouldn't I take?</p>
<p>Literature (I'm in AP Lang & Comp)
Bio E/M (I'm in AP Biology)
Math I (I'm in Functions/Trig)
Physics (I'm in regular physics, no AP, saving it for next year)
US History (I'm in a VERY easy APUSH class right now, we learn absolutely nothing)</p>
<p>Also, should I try to take Math II at all? I'm planning on AP Calc AB next year. </p>
<p>Thanks guys!</p>
<p>EDIT: Also which ones are considered the "easiest" ?</p>
<p>The only one of those that I have taken was the English Lit. I didn’t think it was that hard, but I’m in AP English. It consists of longer passages than on the reading portion of the SAT I. It also has a few complicated poems. The SAT II’s are very similar to the AP exams. At Sparknotes.com, there is an outline for all the SAT II’s.</p>
<p>If you’re not comfortable with the material of a particular SAT II test, then don’t take thait. I’m in AP chem and I did terrible on the chem SAT II because in my chem class, we didn’t cover even half the topics that were on the SAT II, since it was so early in the year. So, I advise you to take an SAT II test where you feel most comfortable about the material.</p>
<p>Math II does not require any calculus. If you have a good grasp of advanced algebra and geometry concepts, you’ll do reasonably well. Math I apparently has a much harsher curve than II, so unless you absolutely do not know the topics in there at all, I’d say go for II. Physics was hard for me even after an AP course, but that could have been because I stupidly took the test a few months after finishing the class and AP exam. US History’s multiple choice is similar to AP; lots of memorization.</p>
<p>Math II: I would actually suggest taking Math II over Math I since the curve is MUCH better. You can basically do everything on your calculator as well, and it requires very little advanced knowledge of math- you probably already know all of the material.</p>
<p>Physics: I’m in AP Physics right now, and it was hard for me since we haven’t gone over the wider spectrum of introductory topics. Your regular physics would probably suffice, so if you are good at Physics you should take this.</p>
<p>US History: Very easy to take right after the AP after you’ve already memorized everything.</p>
