Post YOUR May 2nd SAT II scores.

<p>Lit: 790</p>

<p>Only one left!</p>

<p>Chem - 800
USH - 780
Math II - 770</p>

<p>The chem score was a pleasant surprise; however, I’m going to retake Math II for a 800.</p>

<p>Those with 800 in chem - what did you do?!?</p>

<p>@dancer13 - I really didn’t do anything special to prepare for chem. I’m in AP this year and I’ve had an A+ for the entire year with an excellent teacher so I wasn’t particularly concerned about intensive preparation. I just took a sparknotes practice test to get accustomed to the format.</p>

<p>so do you think a lot of the 800s are from ap, and if so do you think that looking at an ap test prep book could be in any way helpful?</p>

<p>I actually think using a prep book for the subject test would be more helpful. For example, I have Barron’s prep books for both AP Chem and SAT II Chem; although both were hardly used, I thought the SAT II book was more helpful because it (a) introduced the format and better imitated the difficulty of the actual test questions, and (b) was much more succinct – the AP prep book included a lot of extraneous information not even included on the AP test much less the subject test.</p>

<p>Math II - 700 (probably going to retake. was hoping for a 750+)</p>

<p>Barron’s questions aren’t exactly representative of actual SATII’s, so if that’s what you’re looking for in a prep book, get PR. Barron’s is better for review because they cover everything comprehensively and give some more difficult questions to make sure you fully understand everything.</p>

<p>AP doesn’t really help that much, other than History maybe. I took AP Physics C this year and it really didn’t help for the SATII because I still had to learn a lot of random material on optics/waves/etc. And the mechanics/e&m on the SATII were nowhere near the level in AP Physics. So if SATII is all you want, don’t take APs (although you should still take them ^_^).</p>

<p>Ya AP Chem didnt really help…it actually tauge me too much info…I forgot all the basic descriptive chem info.</p>

<p>However, APUSH defiently helped for SAT US. And the Sparknotes website’s list of terms really helped because there are plenty of questions that dealt directly with a specific term.</p>

<p>Bio M-780. solid</p>

<p>all u ppl who got 700+ on the us history subject test, r u guys all in the ap class?</p>

<p>^well cant speak for others but I am…
However, you dont need to be. My friend got a 750 without ever haven taken a single AP History class (so obviously not US).</p>

<p>800 in chem :)</p>

<p>■■■ i think i have to take all my sat ii’s again. if not, at least the bio m… UGH!</p>

<p>so if i have this straight - ap chem book would not be helpful, use barrons for review and pr for practice tests?</p>

<p>US History- 770
Math 2-780</p>

<p>780 APUSH
750 Chem</p>

<p>I am really, really happy about Chem. That is seriously 150 points higher than I thought I was going to get. For me, that test was so BRUTAL.</p>

<p>Biology-E:770
Math 2C: 780</p>

<p>I have to retake Math… >_></p>

<p>^^^ Why do you have to retake a 780 in math? ^^^</p>

<p>I’m in honors US History and I scored a 670. Not an omgamazing score, but higher than average. I’m happy!</p>
