US History SAT II scores???

<p>Virtuoso</p>

<p>770 is outstanding. Don't let anyone on CC tell you otherwise.</p>

<p>I got 750, decent enough.</p>

<p>740...crying...yay me.</p>

<p>I failed the other two though.</p>

<ol>
<li>I feel like a real bastard for being disappointed at this.</li>
</ol>

<p>heh. feel better people... 660.</p>

<p>Yeah a lot of people at my school were very satisfied with their 600's, and most people got 500's and 400's. Let's consider ourselves lucky. :)</p>

<p>So...should I study the anything over 1980s? I'm kinda running short on time...how much for an 800 and how specific are the test questions?</p>

<p>720, I used AMSCO to study for the AP and that was my prep.</p>

<p>800... I used REA</p>

<p>Perhaps glance over the 1980's on.... know about the Iran Contra affair, and big stuff like that. Otherwise, you should be fine...</p>

<p>the test questions seemed to use a lot of graphs tables, way more than the AP.... the questions were otherwise very similar to the AP mc...</p>

<p>740 on history, 740 on lit. I was satisfied</p>

<p>Should I retake the test cold this saturday? I haven't really studied since the APUSH test but I can always hope for an easier test right? Or will getting a worse score hurt me because its still on my score report?</p>

<p>"Are Sparknotes USH tests easier than the real thing?"</p>

<p>I want to know the answer to this as well.</p>

<p>Yeah, it's seems USH may have been easier on the SAT2 (alot of ppl got 800 on CC). My average Sparknotes varies from 790 to 760. So I'm hoping on the real I'll pull off a 780+</p>

<p>800 on USH but not really surprised - hopefully I'll do well on Lit this weekend.</p>

<p>hey wat book did u use julina?</p>

<p>I used AMSCO to study for the USH AP. Since the SAT II USH was only a day after the AP, I didn't do any additional studying and just took the test. Same with Biology. ;x</p>

<p>so best bet would be to read amsco over the summer? for bio did u just use ur textbook?</p>

<p>No, I never use Campbell, lol. I used Cliffnotes to study for AP Biology and didn't do any additional studying for the SAT II Biology. However, I would recommend getting a prep book for SAT II Bio, maybe PR or Barron's if you have time. There were A LOT of data analysis based on graphs + charts on the SAT II Biology that Barron's didn't quite emphasize. Still, Barron's does have a good (albeit excessive) knowledge base. </p>

<p>If you read AMSCO over the summer, I definitely think that you'll be set. In fact, I'm going to read AMSCO for my USH class final this year.</p>

<p>i thought spark notes was about equal or a little tougher than the real thing i averaged about 700 on the pratice tests and got 760 on the real thing</p>

<p>Great news, thanks alot.^</p>
