For those who have taken the SAT Physics Test or who are going to take it, what steps are you taking to prepare?
I am currently in AP Physics 1, which is part 1 of 3 physics courses (1,2,&C) offered at my school. So I am missing a years worth of physics when I take the test this June. I have already began preparing but would like input on what others are doing, especially those who are or have been in the same scenario as I am.
Hey @Verit4s … I just checked out 20 books that I had on hold at the library… The secret, I guess, is just to practice a lot, so the questions will become more immediate.
Ps. If it makes you feel better, I am taking the test in May, and I haven’t started yet.
Decades ago, my only preparation was taking a regular high school physics course (PSSC book and curriculum). Did fine, in the mid-700s.
However, the recent change of AP physics B into a two year sequence means that students taking AP physics without having taken a regular high school physics beforehand will need to complete both years to get coverage of all of the usual physics topics that may be on the SAT subject test.
AP Physics 1 does not cover all the content on the physics subject test.
