Should I be in AP Calculus for Math II?

<p>I'm a junior, in pre-calc at my new school, and I have 97% in the class. At my old school, I had a C in Algebra 2 Honors. Would math I or II be best for me?</p>

<p>math II</p>

<p>most colleges really dont count the math I</p>

<p>but SAT II math is different than school math, more logic, not based off a certain topic such as pre-calc or trig or geometry - its a mix of everything up until probably trig/pre-calc</p>

<p>Math II only goes up to PreCalc, so I'd suggest taking it in May or June of this year.</p>

<p>Not necessary.</p>

<p>there is absolutely NO calculus on math II (ok, maybe 1 or 2 questions on limits, but you can leave those blank and still get 800), so you should take it BEFORE calculus or you'll forget how to do normal math</p>

<p>I took the SAT math level II after only pre-calculus and I got in the 700's. So I would definitely recommend math II. Many schools, especially top-tier ones, prefer it over math I.</p>

<p>thanks you guys i will definitely be taking math II</p>

<p>You know this, having extensively researched a number of the nation's top undergraduate institutions, yes?</p>

<p>Stanford alone, as far as I can tell, prefers Math II. CIT is the only top calibre college that demands Math II. Please don't disseminate false information.</p>

<p>To score well on Math II, one needs a strong foundation in Algebra II and Pre Calculus. Calculus is irrelevant.</p>

<p>Take Math 2. It's the only thing that will correlate better with PreCalc.</p>

<p>Math 2 isn't much harder than math 1 except that it covers more advanced material so if you've taken precal definitely take math 2.</p>

<p>Also the curve is awesome -6 = 800 :)</p>
