<p>I didn’t use PR to prep for math level 2. I agree that Barron’s is a little bit of an overprep. The questions in the book are significantly harder than questions in other prep books. I used Barron’s because I aimed for an 800 on this test. By using a harder prep book, I felt that I would do better on the actual test.
I heard that PR also preps you well for the test, since the questions in the book are very similar to the actual test questions.</p>
<p>anyone know anywhere online i can get good, reliable practice tests? i got a 750 on the october one D:…i was hoping to get an 800 this time, but as of now im getting like low 700’s max on sparknotes tests O_O…then again, i had to skip some spraknotes problems cause i couldnt read the formatting</p>
<p>does anyone know if there will be determinants of matrices on the test, and how many questions are related to conics?</p>
<p>So the Diagnostic test in Barron’s is harder than the real thing? I got a 500 on it (LOL) and I haven’t seen precalc in three years. Is it possible to score a 750+ come Sunday with a week’s prep?</p>
<p>I don’t understand why math is so hard for me. I’m in AP Calc right now and I took pre-calc last year. I’ve gotten A’s in all of my math classes in High School. I got a 680 on last month’s math 2 and I’m really struggling for 750.</p>
<p>Same here. ^</p>
<p>For me, I’m just not used to the style in which the questions are presented.</p>
<p>Just took the Barron’s Diagnostic and got a 690 thanks to dumb mistakes. I’m cracking down just this week so everything is fresh this Saturday.</p>
<p>It looks like a 690 on the Barron’s is a good start…I’ll take three more practice tests and hopefully get an 800 on those. Seems like that’s a good guarantee.</p>
<p>I got 790 on PR test and I’ve been getting 660-690 on Barron’s… Does anybody know how much can I get on the real test approx.? P.S. Good luck to all who are taking it tomorrow :)!</p>
<p>What does a 560 to 590 on one Barron’s practice test equate to on the real thing?</p>
<p>tomorrow is the test guys, who here used Barron’s, I was getting 680-740 high, what about you guys</p>
<p>I’m taking it tomorrow and I’m using the PR one. I want a 700-750.</p>
<p>Good luck my brothers and sisters!</p>
<p>I’m taking it tomorrow too - I want an 800. Badly. My Barron’s scores never went past 740 and I got an 800 on the only official test I took… I’m nervous lol. Good luck tomorrow, and may we all be pleased with our scores come December 20th!</p>
<p>Its over! I’m happy, it was way easier than Barron’s, I only skipped 2!</p>
<p>It was a lot easier than I thought!</p>
<p>Not too bad.
On the last question: was it the January of every other year or the July of every other year? And why?</p>
<p>I believe it was January because cos(12pi/12) gives you a negative. 445 - (-105) > 445- 0. I don’t know if it the number used was 105 but the essence of the question is there.</p>
<p>I also thought the test was pretty easy but I still didn’t finish every question.I had a fly attacking me the whole test and I cannot express how difficult that made things.</p>
<p>Are we allowed do discuss? Also, 44/50 is an 800 correct? so if I skipped two, I could afford to get three wrong, correct?</p>
<p>i couldnt imagine that discussing is encouraged but everyone does it after each sitting anyways. yea you should be fine. 43-44 is usually the curve and i’m thinking it will be 43 this time. i skipped 6-7 because of time and have missed 1 so far. i wanted a 800 so badly but realistically im looking at 770 or so.</p>
<p>easy enough. skipped four and answered the rest. </p>
<p>The last three were pretty hard though for me. I also skipped the one on interquartile range.</p>
<p>The fourth to the last question I was also a little unsure about. It was something about x-y is between -1 and 0, what is x+y… what did you guys get for that one?</p>
<p>So yea, it was pretty easy but that just means harsher curve :(</p>
