Some SAT II questions?!?

Test Preparation SAT Subject Test Preparation

<p>So I'm about to take some SAT IIs in May and here's what I have planned out:
Definitely: Mandarin, Math II
Maybe: Chemistry.</p>

<p>So I have a couple of questions to ask you guys:
1. Do you get a formula sheet in math II? I HAVE made a 800 on my math section on my actual SAT, but I don't remember any of the obscure formulas such as volumes for prisms or some trig identities/law of cosine. Will we get a formula sheet on that?
2. How many questions are you allowed to miss while still maintaining a 800 on these exams? I know that these change every year and varies with tests, but can anyone give me an estimate given the three tests I (may) take this time?
3. I'm not all that strong at Chemistry. (my grades will correspond with that). If you are taking AP Chemistry and currently don't have a fairly high grade, how will you do on the SAT IIs? Also, is there any other tests that you CCers may recommend that are easy to study/prep for?</p>

<p>Thanks for your time!!</p>

<p>Oh, gosh! one more thing… I just found out that November is the only time that Chinese is offered. I’m currently a junior (so I’ll be a senior by the time I take it) Is it going to be too late for colleges??? Please respond!</p>

<li>You don’t get a formula sheet, but they give you a few basic formula in the beginning. Just look at any practice test (such as the ones on the SparkNotes website)</li>
<li>I think 44 raw score is usually 800. I.e., 6 questions unanswered or 5 wrong.</li>
<li>Not sure</li>
<li>Colleges usually accept even the December test for RD</li>
</ol>

<p>Bump! Do you guys think I should wait that late or just give up on it and try another exam?? Any other opinions on this matter??? Thanks!</p>
