SAT II vs Biology?

<p>I'm deciding which SAT subject test to take. For Math, I'm not much of a Math person. I have a B in precal now, but my high school is one of the top in my state, so it is harder than others. Still, I'm not so certain about taking Math II. I only scored a 66 on the PSAT on Math though.
For Bio, although I have an A in the AP class right now, I don't think I remember anything. Bio to me is just too overwhelming, and my teacher curves the test so it's extremely easy to make an A.
Which test would you suggest I take?</p>

<p>P/s: For Biology, is the SAT II similar to AP Bio? Because I know SAT II World History was not ( 4 on AP vs 610 SAt II)</p>

<p>oh I’m considering Math II because its curve seems the easiest</p>

<p>up up up up up upup up up</p>

<p>I took Math II after Calc BC and I’m realllyyy a math person and I only got a 760 (I wasn’t great at precalc though). I’m sure if I took it again I would do better but…I don’t think it’s worth it if it’s already over 750. And then I took Bio E after only 4 months of AP Bio and got a 790. If you’ve already taken AP Enviro, it’s easier to do Bio E. </p>

<p>If you’re willing to take out a practice book and study for a few days, I would recommend Bio. If not, do Math. Why not both?</p>

<p>I would suggest doing both… unless you have another subject that you’re much better at. Math II’s curve is very generous, so you don’t have to be a math wizard, especially if you just put in the time to practice. I went through a few prep books, and went from a 620 to 740. A 66 on the PSAT is not bad at all, I’m pretty sure I got lower than that or around it. </p>

<p>If you’re only a junior, you still have A LOT of time. I don’t have experience with AP Biology, but I believe most people can do well on the SAT II without even taking AP Bio. Using a good prep book (PR or Barrons) will suffice for a 700+. </p>

<p>Just start practicing early, so you’re not surprised to find yourself with little to no time to prepare before the test date. I would take these tests at the end of the year, in June or May, when you’re done with these subjects in class.</p>

<p>It honestly depends on the time and effort you put in for both tests. They are not easy tests, but if you set aside a reasonable amount of time to study, you should be fine. I’m not much of a math person either, but I took Math II after AP Calculus BC and I scored a 790, and I scored a 740 on Biology after taking AP Biology. Take a lot of practice tests so you are familiar with the material, and try to get your hands on some preparatory books. Good luck!</p>

<p>Hi,
so I got a 720 on December test in math. What books do you suggest I get for those tests?</p>

<p>^I’m assuming Math II Subject Test? That score shows you have a solid foundation of the material, and just need practice most likely to cut down on careless errors and such. Use Barrons.</p>
