Should I take the SAT with Alg II?

As you may already know, I’m in geometry right now and will be taking alg II next year. I will also be taking the SAT on December 1, 2018. So will 5 months of alg II be enough for my first time taking the SAT? Will I need to learn more alg II topics before then? Please help!!!

Get a SAT review book and determine for yourself if you are prepared.

Ok I’ll do that. Thank you :slight_smile:

You might need to know some statistics, but in general Alg II should be enough for the test.

Is this just general statistics (e.g. mean, median, mode, range,etc.) or do I need to know more specific stuff. In other words, will I be fine without having taken a statistics course?

I took the SAT with Algebra 2 (no statistics at the time) and I didn’t run into any problems. I think you’ll be fine.

Statistics topics on recent real SAT administrations have included standard deviation and box-and-whisker plots.

Once you try some sample tests, you will have a better idea about whether your background is sufficient.

Thank you, @r2v2018 and @evergreen5 ; I’ll keep that in mind.
