<p>Which Subject tests have you taken in your high school career? And which are you sending to college?
Feel free to add how many times you have taken them and/or the scores you got</p>
<p>I’m worried because my schedule doesn’t line up too well with subject tests over the next two years.</p>
<p>I took Bio E and got a 710.</p>
<p>I’m taking US History and Math 2 this Saturday!</p>
<p>I’ve taken Math II, Bio E, and Lit, and I got 800/730/730, respectively. One of my college choices requires SAT II Physics, so I’m taking Physics and (maybe) US History in October or November.</p>
<p>Math II: 690
US History: 790
English Literature (twice): 630 and 760</p>
<p>I ended up sending the Literature and History scores. I also took some other ones earlier on not worth mentioning, but if you need any assistance regarding any of these let me know! Good luck.</p>
<p>@shawnspencer I am considering taking the English lit test…what do you recommend I do to study? Do I need to take AP LIT to do well on it?</p>
<p>No you don’t. There are only one or two questions that you may need to know a certain term that may not know before hand. Practice with your timing and deciphering the passages. College board has a free one on its website and there are plenty of review books. It’s often described as “CR on steroids” simply because it includes sections like poetry and often relies on symbolism and metaphors. One key thing you need to remember while taking the test is, every answer you pick there must be clear EVIDENCE of it in the text, and you can point out a specific line that supports it. If it just “sounds smart” and englishy and has no support, it is not the right answer.</p>
<p>Taking Lit might help, but alot of it is based off your past experience for reading critically and if you practice and are a good reader you will be fine. There are some tips threads on CC that I found helpful before taking Lit. Timing is the most important thing as you really need to pace yourself. I will warn you though that Lit’s curve is not the most generous one, but it’s the one you can relax and don’t have to overstudy for.</p>
<p>It basically comes down to the day of the test how you interpret the passages. Both times I took it I did minimal preparation (mostly the day before) but honestly some passages are easier than others (which explains the large gap in my lit scores). It’s sometimes just the luck of the draw. If you have other tests that day, focus on those and do your best on lit if you’re taking it. Good luck!</p>
<p>@shawnspencer Awesome! Thanks for the advice! I think I will study for Lit. I hope I can get a score like your second one. Are there any specific links to the helpful tips you found on CC? Or is the Xiggi method kind of thing good?</p>
<p>I took Bio M and got 800 and 700 on US History</p>
<p>Math 2 - 800
Bio M - 740
Physics - 700 (didn’t submit)
Took Math 2 in June of Junior year and Bio M in October of Senior year. </p>
<p>I’ve only taken Math II and Lit in June. Hoping I did fine on them. </p>
<p>@saif235 @krpoltax Do you think Math II generally has a nice curve to get an 800? That is what I am hoping for</p>
<p>@151Andrew151 yes, the curve is nice I’m not saying it’s a breeze getting an 800, but if you are good at math and are well prepared, it can be a breeze!</p>
<p>The Math 2 curve is pretty easy. On average I think you can miss a maximum of 5 points (miss 4 OR skip 5) to get an 800. </p>
<p>Math 2 - 800
Physics - 800
Chemistry - 790</p>
<p>Taken once, and I’ll most likely send them all.</p>
<p>Chemistry - 740
Literature - 780
Math II - 800</p>
<p>I sent them all. </p>
<p>@skieurope did you take the physics exam after taking AP physics I?</p>
<p>@skieurope @halcyonheather when did you take the chem subject tests? Do I need to take ap chem? I just finished Honors Chem</p>
<p>@151andrew151 I took the physics subject test after honors physics and the chem test after AP Chem.</p>
<p>
I took it after AP Chem. Depending on how good your high school chemistry class was, you don’t need AP Chem, but I took AP Chem and I still didn’t do all that well. </p>
