<p>730 on math 1
or
730 on math 2</p>
<p>heres how I see it</p>
<p>i can take math 1, miss three or four questions and end up with a 730
or
take the harder math 2 test, miss like 11 questions, and end up with a 730</p>
<p>(i may have exaggerated the curve on math 2, but do you see the root of my question)</p>
<p>I don't know which one would be considered "sexy", but I do recommend math 2c.</p>
<p>I'd say math 1 because they know how incredibly easy the curve for 2 is in comparison.</p>
<p>thats what i was thinking</p>
<p>im going to go with math 1 just because I haven't taken a precalc class yet (although ive self studied it for physics) and i think its similiar to the SAT1 math, which is good for me. </p>
<p>any other thoughts on the </p>
<p>easy curve
versus
easy test</p>
<p>debate?</p>
<p>Well, if you haven't taken a pre-calculus class or higher then taking Math 1 won't look terrible. If you have, then it will.</p>
<p>If you think you can do fairly well on Math 2 even without the class, it'll look even better. Math 2 always looks better than 1, I believe. You underestimate the meaning of the curve-- it's so "easy" because anyone who hasn't studied or knows what they're doing can do pretty bad pretty easily.</p>
<p>I think it just depends if you're math savvy or not. Don't take my word for it, but if it's within your reach Math 2 would be better most likely.</p>
<p>Definitely level 2. I think some colleges even require it.</p>
<p>level 2 ---------------------</p>
<p>If you got a 1000/800, thats what i call sexy</p>
<p>To hedge your bets, you could take both Math I & Math II; that's what my son did (on different dates). He actually scored much higher on Math II, because they had just reviewed everything in his calculus & physics C class before he took the Oct test. He hadn't seen some of the material in Math I in a while (other than a quick review of the sample Math I test) & I think careless errors really hurt.</p>
<p>It also depends on what you're planning to major in. Since son is interested in science, math, computer science, & maybe engineering, the GC suggested he take Math II (after he had already taken Math I spring of junior year). He also took US History, Bio (freshman year), Physics.</p>
<p>Your GC might be able to provide more insights, based on your interests & college/career plans.</p>
