<p>If I wanted to take the subject test in biology, would I take it after the 9th grade school year(when I would have finished biology honors), or is the material covered AP Biology concepts(which I would take in 11th or 12th grade)?</p>
<p>Bump…</p>
<p>Bump (wondering the same thing but for World History)</p>
<p>If you’re going to take the AP version, wait until then. For example, taking the SATII U.S. History in May (or June), right after APUSH, is convenient.</p>
<p>Me too but for Chemistry, so I looked up what concepts will be on the subject test and decided to that I can take it and get a 650+ score. I suggest you do the same.</p>
<p>You should take it after AP Bio unless you self study.</p>
<p>So, the subject tests are more based on the AP classes rather than the basic course? Also, what’s the AP version?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>The questions on the subject tests are AP-level. Therefore, take the subject test after you have taken the corresponding AP course.</p>
<p>Thanks!!! Would you recommend taking AP Biology in 11th or 12th grade? I’m just wondering because I’m not sure when to take the subject test for it…</p>

<p>Not necessarily true…</p>
<p>Math II goes up to trig/pre-calc, so it does not include of AP Calc AB/BC. I’ve had many friends take bio/chem subject tests after taking honors bio/chem courses, and they did fine. </p>
<p>You’re probably better off waiting until you finish the AP courses, but you can certainly do fine without taking the AP course. If you are looking at taking AP bio your junior year, you can take the bio subject test at the end of your junior year. If you end up taking AP bio your senior year, you not be able to complete the course before you take the subject test. As a rule of thumb, take the tests when you complete the highest level related course. For math II that will be when you complete trig/pre-calc, for bio that will be when you complete AP bio, and so forth.</p>
<p>If I were to take the subject test after biology honors, and I did okay, would colleges be able to see my score, or would I be able to select it so that they can’t see it?</p>
<p>My school doesn’t offer AP World History, just honors, so would I do fine or would there be topics on the test not covered in an honors course?</p>
<p>Some honors courses go into a necessary amount of depth for the SAT IIs, and some don’t, and some self-study whatever their courses skimmed over, and some are born smart, and some are born (or live) in Connecticut, and some take them after taking the corresponding APs, and some take them cold, and some hire others to take the subject tests for them. Whatever the case may be, I suggest looking at the damn questions to judge your readiness. </p>

<p>The link is very helpful, thanks!!!</p>
<p>I took the World History SAT II after only a NYS Regents-level course on it, and I got a 770. It’s possibly to do well without taking an AP/IB course, as long as you are a good/dedicated student. I’d probably suggest taking a subject test after an AP/IB course though, to help out with studying.</p>
<p>I walked into the World History test not really realizing it would be more AP-styled. The questions on the website are deceptively easy. I walked in only having looked at my notes, the Collegeboard prep book, and my text book. I read that puppy cover to cover though. :P</p>
<p>Wow!!! If I do okay on the subject test, will colleges see my score? Also, what days can you take the SAT Subject tests?</p>
