<p>hi guys, im gonna be a senior and im just about done with sats except i need a third subject test. i'm wondering if its easier to selfstudy us history or literature, and which one its easier to get an 800 in. i did not take APUSH this past year but i have an exceptional memory, but i also got an 800 in CR on the sat1.</p>
<p>If you haven't taken USH, no matter how exceptional your memory may be, it'll be hard to catch up with a year's worth of boring, trivial facts. Literature's my suggestion.</p>
<p>I second that.</p>
<p>What makes literature so easy to self-study for? I always assumed lit. was the hardest.</p>
<p>yah it's hard. but you can spend countless hours doing practice tests.</p>
<p>World History. This is different from USH, because World History is actually <em>interesting</em>, and does not ask you obscure facts like the names of first ladies or secretaries...you will find yourself retaining a huge chunk after self-studying through a prep book! The questions aren't overly vague either.</p>
<p>ps. It also has one of the most liberal curves on SAT 2 ;)</p>
<p>Umm if you haven't yet take a math subject test. If not probably World History methinks. Unless you took regular US History last year in which case you would have it somewhat fresh. But anything - math would take a lot of work and IMO I wouldn't do it.</p>
<p>i've taken math2 already. but theres no world history sat offered on time i believe... (i'm going to be a senior and i need it in time for apps?). furthermore yeah, i just completed regular history.</p>
