<p>Have you found that the SAT Math portion and the Math 1c SAT II are pretty similar, not close to one another? One easier than the other?</p>
<p>regular SAT math was easier. IC definitely had more trig in it. And don't forget that the IC has a much tougher curve.</p>
<p>Actually, the 1C has a nicer curve compared to the Sat I. The trig on 1C is limited to the right triangle but the math is just harder.</p>
<p>"Actually, the 1C has a nicer curve compared to the Sat I."</p>
<p>You sure? I'm pretty certain that 1 wrong on the IC brings you down to a 780 and 2 wrong to a 760. Is the New SAT I curve that harsh now? Geez, I got 1 wrong on the October 2004 SAT I math and still had an 800.</p>
<p>I also remember having to use the Law of Sines on the IC because there was a non-right triangle and u had to find missing data about the triangle.</p>
<p>The new sat curve is like 800,790,760,740 (taken from college board website) and the math 1c curve is about (according to the real sat II book and other recousces) 800,790,780,770,760,760 so it is much nicer and pretty much goes down by 10 points each time (but the math is harder and it is "real" math that doesn't just test reasoning ability) But if you got 800 in october, you should have no problem.</p>
<p>Because of the similarities, do you think getting an 800 on SATII math1 (after also getting 800 math2c) would make a 770 SAT1 math look more like just a bad day?<br>
I don't really want to take the four hour SAT again, so I am thinking of taking SAT2 math1c, and if I don't feel confident in an 800, simply cancelling my scores.</p>
<p>Is this plan too eccentric?</p>
<p>If you have:</p>
<p>800 Math IIC
800 Math IC
770 SAT I Math</p>
<p>And if you have straight As in math class, then most colleges will get the hint that you are really good at math and the 770 won't harm you.</p>
