To take or not to take -- that is the question

Test Preparation
1

<p>I just got back my SAT II scores for Bio and Math IIC, and for the most part, I am relatively pleased with them (750 BioM and 780 Math IIC)</p>

<p>However, I'm going to retake them in December because I'm pretty sure I can improve since I now have time to study (as opposed to last time)</p>

<p>MY PROBLEM IS: should I take a third SAT II, SAT II: US History. I'm actually very good at US History. The only problem is that it would require me to study for a few days to get a good score, and I don't know if I can get above 750 in it.</p>

<p>So three questions:
1. Is the curve generous for SAT II US History...is the test easy?
2. What's the best book to study for SAT II UH (Other than REA, already have it from AP)
3. Are there ANY colleges which require 3 SAT IIs (mind you, I'm sending in ACT scores, so most colleges say ACT alone is fine, let alone 2 sat IIs)
4. SHOULD I take SAT II US History or not (hence the thread title)</p>

<p>Thank you so much for your help.
Best of luck re-taking those tests in December,

<p>No studying other than night before test in US History, 770.</p>

<p>I didn't think it was that bad. I put down an answer for every single question, so I probably got around 10 wrong. Not too bad out of 90.</p>

<p>-the curve is generous
-ivies require 3 SATIIs (princeton for example)
-study during thanksgiving or christmas break
-if you're a history whiz, go for it!</p>
