What if you have inadequate background of MATH 2?

<p>I've taken sat math 2 using only barrons (n didnt score as Id hoped: 650 o_O) but I noticed that it assumes you know most of the material and is just good if ur extremely pedantic and want to prepare thoroughly. In high school I took algebra 1 and some main concepts of alg 2 but I still need to catch up on things like functions and how to graph them on the graphing calculators (I personally have a ti 84 plus). </p>

<p>1.) Can anyone suggest good ti 84 short cuts to math questions esp on functions and how to analyse them (specifically the common examples) and other tid bits?</p>

<p>2.) So with this taken into consideration what is the best book you'd suggest? would pr help me with the basic concepts (Im generally good in math so once I get the main concept I can implement in more advanced situations). </p>

<p>3.) Also are there any good books that cover the content covered in easy to understand steps (with good examples)?</p>

<p>Sparknotes was pretty easy to understand and it’s free [SparkNotes:</a> SAT Subject Test: Math Level 2](<a href=“http://www.sparknotes.com/testprep/books/sat2/math2c/]SparkNotes:”>http://www.sparknotes.com/testprep/books/sat2/math2c/)
Barrons is way overkill; it covers material not even on the test.
I think your best bet is just reviewing the material and then taking as many tests as you can; the official Blue Book tests are really good for this as well.</p>

<p>Barron’s worked pretty well for me despite my 720. I would’ve had a higher score if my mind wasn’t so ruffled during the exam.</p>
