SAT II Literature vs. Math IIC (or IC)

Test Preparation
1

<p>Here is my situation:
This month, I am going to have to take two SAT II's. I need at least a 700 on each one. I am already taking US History. I need to take another test. Here are my options:</p>

<p>Literature:
I read a fair amount, but mostly newspapers, news magazines, and biographies. not much lit. I have taken the ACT twice, and have scored a 36 and a 35 on the Reading portions of the test. Is the lit. test similar to the ACT Reading at all? Or could I study my way to a 700 in 2 and a half weeks?</p>

<p>Math:
I have not had math since last year, when I took what would be the equivalent of AP Calc AB. I didn't take the AP test because I am not any good at math. I studied hard for my ACT score of 33, which I moved up from a 28. I also got a 670 on the SAT I Math test. Could 2 and a half weeks of studying from a book get me a 700 on the IC or IIC?</p>

<p>I have a 35 on the ACT and a 760 on the SAT II Writing. I need two more 700s. I know I can do the US History. Which other test would you guys take if you were me? Any other help would be appreciated. thank you</p>

<p>If you got 35 and 36 on the reading, i would definitely say take the lit unless your colleges require math ic or iic... literature has a very generous curve, and if u can understand the language, it's not too difficult. take a practice and see how u do if u have time. i'm not a math person either, i would definitely say lit. check if your colleges require math though.</p>

<p>Since you already completed CALC AB, I'd say you have a solid enough foundation to take the math IIC. If you brush up by using a PR Review book or something I think you'd do fine. If you want, just take a practice test for both and see how you do.</p>

<p>Good luck with Lit</p>

<p>bump- I feel hesitant about my math, because I've never been that great and haven't taken math since last year. however, I have heard bad things about the Lit test. any more opinions would be greatly appreciated</p>
