<p>The December 2012 SAT Math Level 2 subject test is now 25 days away, so I thought of starting this new thread.</p>
<p>I've started preparing for this test and planning to do tests from McGraw Hill and Kaplan and then take a few from Barrons. Please share your thoughts...</p>
<p>I’m taking it this december too. I’m doing McGraw Hills 10 practice tests and Barrons.</p>
<p>study from barrons its the best for math 2 out there</p>
<p>I signed up for math I, world history and Bio m, but I’m switching to math II when I get there.
I bought Barron’s on ebay last week and it should arrive this week. Guess I’ll prep intensely for about two weeks then have at it. BTW, I’m testing on Sunday. First and only take. :3</p>
<p>barron’s is hard to practice from…
im so worried about this test. math is not my forte.</p>
<p>^ Same. I hope I’m not making a mistake in switching…</p>
<p>can anyone comment on the sparknotes math II book or the princeton?</p>
<p>any input is greatly appreciated</p>
<p>Princeton is good with their practice tests - they aren’t accurate, but they will cover all of the bases. If you review all of your mistakes and make sure you can do every question on their four practice tests, you should be fine. </p>
<p>Oh and don’t worry if you suck at the Barron’s test - they are way harder than the real thing!</p>
<p>thanks. that helps a lot. im gonna finish up pr this week for the test next week.</p>
<p>I took the November math lvl 2, and it definitely took me by surprise. Maybe I underestimated it, or maybe it was just that hard, I can’t say. But I found the test VERY different from the ones in Barron’s! There were two money/interest based questions and those topics weren’t included in the Barron’s book. (Idk about you guys, but I bought mine from India, so the topics might be different, I guess? lol). I got above the 750 mark in all my Barron’s tests and even the Sparknotes online tests. But I think I had left almost half the questions in the real thing. Expecting my scores today, they’re going to suck.
Good luck to you guys though. Practice more! that really helps.</p>
<p>710 on the math level 2. Hell yeah.</p>
<p>I got 750! I wish I had gotten an 800 though</p>
<p>800 
yeah so happy</p>
<p>It’s nearly time, guys…</p>
<p>I’m just starting Barron’s, lol. This should be interesting considering how much I suck at math. xD</p>
<p>@emotionprelude how did u study?</p>
<p>@Chillypenguin
Use Barron’s, it got me an 800. Took all practice tests and 2 CB tests. But idk, I’m kind of biased since I did a lot of math in middle school (1st in state in MC) so…
Just use Barron’s if you can get a 700+ on the Barrons tests you are good to go. If you really want to work hard, get a PR too for more tests and use the Sparknotes. I heard Sparknotes tests were really accurate.</p>

<p>Sorry for the late reply. I used Barron’s and took the practice test in the official study guide. If you get under 5 questions wrong on Barron’s practice tests, then it is highly likely that you will get an 800 on the real test. </p>
<p>I think the curve was also very generous for this month. I certainly felt that I didn’t do my best after taking the exam, and I knew that I made silly mistakes on some questions after the test…</p>
<p>Hope this helped!</p>
<p>@whatdoyouthink, emotionprelude</p>
<p>I feel like Barrons is too hard, so I’m using PR right now. I hope it will at least get me to low 700s…you guys know about PR?</p>
<p>(sorry for the offtopic q)</p>
<p>The thing I like about tests like math level 2 (harder content + lenient curves) is that I don’t have to worry about stupid mistakes losing the 800, since there is wiggle room. I’m using an old barron’s book because I’m too cheap to buy a newer one. The only difference is some statistics stuff which I already know.</p>
