SAT II Subject Test... Best way to prepare?

<p>I am about to take the Physics and math(2) subjects tests, what is the best way to prepare for them. The math I got covered but mainly for the physics. I'm trying out some books etc. but I wanted other peoples' take. Please and thank you.</p>

<p>Are you taking an AP Physics course by any chance? The AP and the SAT II cover pretty much the same material (SAT II covers just one extra section called Special Relativity) so you’re set if you’re taking the AP course. You may want to try a practice test though (take one from the collegeboard official guide). It’s a different feel from the AP. If you feel like you need some help, get a prep book. I’m using Princeton Review right now and I think it’s a pretty good review. There should be a thread on CC somewhere with the best prep books for each SAT II subject test.
If you’re not taking the AP, then again, get a prep book. Maybe get a Barrons because their books are known to be much harder than the SAT II, but since youre not getting the challenge from AP, it may be wise to prepare for some more difficult questions.</p>

<p>Hope that helps!</p>

<p>Thanks, that helps. I’m taking AP right now but most of it is pretty much self study (my teacher is new to teaching AP and is still a little disoriented), and I realized that the special relativity was extra, so yeah I’m just going to review everything and prepare for both at once. I took a spark notes practice test, but those are known to be much more difficult than the actual test (atleast for APs).</p>
