Test Preparation SAT Subject Test Preparation

I just took the SAT on march 10,2018. I think I did pretty well. I am thinking about taking the SAT Subjects (bio and chem) . Is this a good idea?
Keep in mind

  1. I have zero preparation
  2. My school doesn’t teach us that well ( I live in Saudi Arabia; education= meh.)
  3. I am 18. I am in the grade 11

PS. I have 2 and a half months till june and 6 and a half months till October ( the next test date after june).

Any help will be appreciated
Thanks.

I am planning to take the Chem and Bio subject tests as well. The most important factor is whether you’ve taken these courses yet and what level. Did you take an equivalent of AP chem and bio this year?

If so, the topics covered on chem should be fairly similar, if not easier. Bio is a little different in that you can choose to take the E (ecology) or M (molecular), which would require more detailed studying.

Taking subject tests will demonstrate your proficiency in a certain subject matter, so it will definitely help. Most colleges do not have strict requirements regarding these tests though.

@Ppubsdk If you have some foundational knowledge in bio or chem, i’d recommend buying a prep book like Barrons or PR to study.
