<p>hi, I had a couple questions about sat 2, current junior taking them in June.</p>
<p>some of my friends took math two last year(sophomore) and got a 790. I also heard there is a math one. what is the difference between math one and math two? I am currently in precalculus. is it possible to take it with this level of math. I have absolutely no knowledge of trig. </p>
<p>I am also taking physics CP. if I self study for this one on my own, it is feasible, or should I just wait till next year after I take ap physics. Which prep book would u guys recommend for this?</p>
<p>if I am looking into the environemtnal/alterenative energies/ and a CS field, which subject tests and ap's would u recommend.</p>
<p>Thanks!=)</p>
<p>The Math 1 is more basic math and isn’t accepted by all of the more prestigous colleges. The Math 2 is more advanced and is sometimes required.</p>
<p>Many schools require the physics or chemistry test in addition to a math test. It’s definitely feasible to self-study, but it won’t do you any harm to take the course first. The tests can be studied towards, but nothing replaces a solid understanding of the subject.</p>
<p>Very competitive schools often require three subject tests. (for technical degrees, Math + Physics/Chemistry + your choice) Pick something you’re comfortable with. I went with Math II, Physics, and Literature.</p>
<p>Best of luck! One last tip - make sure you get these tests done by June the summer before your senior year, or you eliminate some ED/EA options.</p>
<p>So it is ok to take the physics subject test without having the physics honors or AP course load? I’m in push, some think I’ll end up taking math2, physics, and u.s. any iinput on what to take that relates to my major.0</p>
<p>I would definitely suggest Math II and Physics. The third doesn’t really matter - whatever you feel you can score highest on. Round your skills out a bit - maybe try not to do all science. I took a physics course that was around freshman year of college level before I took the test, so I don’t know how well you’d do. I’d suggest that you take a practice test and see where your scores land. If you hit high 600s the first time, you should be able to work your way up to a pretty good score. Good luck!</p>
