SAT Questions

I will be taking both the SAT and the SAT Subject Tests in Maths, Chem, and Biology this year. I want to do really well in them. However, I’ve heard that some books are really bad for SAT Prep and that the actual exam is harder. How can I still do well if this is the case? Additionally, could you recommend any good resources (books and websites) for doing well in all of these tests?

Ok. I am a freshman and I’m taking Biology. I want to do it by myself (with no tutor or any extra help) because I don’t want to become dependent on anyone. I want to start studying early, but I am sort of a procrastinator. So, I think I’m going to start studying soon.

Do you still think I have enough time to study and get a 750+, considering I am a freshman?

I need an easy to understand and helpful prep book for SAT reasoning test and subject test (Spanish, literature, and Biology)

Is a 620 good on this years Biology SAT subject test?
Any guideline or scale I can compare with?

I’m going to take these tests in January: Math Level 2, Biology, and Chemistry or US History.
Which test relatively has a more lenient curve: chemistry or US history?

im taking the biology E subject test in 2 weeks and i just took the practice test in the college board study guide book and i got an ok score. the problem is that i dont remember some of the terms and concepts like mitosis etc. im wondering is there a place i can get reaquainted with stuff that are likely gonna be on the test?

What are the good books to study for ACT and SAT II? For Biology E/M, Math IIC, and US History?

I will be taking Math Level 2 (I didn’t even take level 1!), Literature, and Biology E/M. Any type of help is much appreciated.

looking for classes/tutors for sat II in biology
am interested in going to harvard
any suggestions

I am currently studying for the june 7 biology sat 2 and am using the sparknotes study guide for it. I took all the practice tests and did satisfactory. I also have a white barrons book that i looked at the other day. I noticed that the practice tests were way harder. Does anyone know how hard the actual sat2 is compared to the sparknotes / barrons book practice tests?

Is the SAT II biology hard? What books could i use to prepare for it?

I’ve taken Biology E and Mathematics Level 2, but I only scored 690 and 750, respectively.

I’m aiming for an 800, so which test prep book would you recommend? (Barron’s, Kaplan, Princeton Review, etc)

I’m going to take the test in about a month, so I’m not sure how much I can prepare for two tests.

(Also, would you recommend Biology E or Biology M?)

I am planning on taking SAT Subject Tests in US History and Biology in October. As I was studying my prep books, I was wondering if I also used AP prep books for those classes, would they help? I really want to get a high scores on these tests. Are the AP prep books more in depths? I have never taken an AP exam before so I don’t know how thorough AP prep books are. Or should I just stick to studying only SAT Subject Test prep books?

My questions is not just using AP prep books but using both SAT II preps and AP preps.

I was wondering if the books that i am using will actualy be helpful to me, i want to hear from someone that has already taken the test and got good results, or if you know someone that has done well!!!

im using barrons for the literature,biology,and chemistry tests……also for the ACT is the real guide that they published good?

I’m a junior and I need to know like the best prep book to use and if I should take a prep class or not and which class would be the best. Any other helpful information would be greatly appreciated.

Also how should I study for the SAT II subject tests. I haven’t taken any yet and I need to take like two or three. I want to go to UCLA or USC so is there certain subjects I should take. And one more thing. I think I can take the u.s. history test this year and physics next year, but im not sure what other subjects. and will colleges only see the scores that i want them too or all of them. oh and last year i did really good in world history and biology, but i was too late for the tests. now my memory has faded majorly, but should i try and refresh with a prep book and try and take those now.

i’ve gotten really tense about all this because it seems all my peers have already been preparing and what not. is this a really late time to be prepping and how much should i be studying a day. thanks!

I’ve just bought a Princeton review prep book for the SAT Biology. But, I don’t know whether the level of difficulty that I will face on the real SAT test would be about the same as my Princeton SAT prep book practice test. Can anybody tell me? Thanks a lot!

I need to know if there are any science based questions on the SAT. I know that there are Math, English, and Critical Reading, but are there any specific to biology, physics, etc.?

Okay. I just took a practice test for the Biology SAT II (which I’ve been studying for a lot) and received a 760/800 (which I would love to get on the actual test).

Does anyone have experience with the difficulty of Sparknotes practice tests? I am just curious to see whether or not I can pull off this score on the actual exam.

I also have the officials tests, but I have yet to take those.

I need to know what the approximate highest score someone can get on the SAT subject test for biology leaving seven of the questions blank.

Im going to be a senior when the new school year starts. On the SAT, I got:
1st: 1930 (570c, 760m, 600w)
2nd: 2160 (700c, 780m, 680w)

So here are my questions:

1. Should I retake the SAT? I know I already took it twice, but with some studying over the summer, I think I can score a little better.
2. If I take it again, would colleges average the 3 SATs since I took it three times. I’ve heard countless different things on how colleges look at SAT scores, and I am so confused. How would colleges look at my SATs if I retake or not retake?
3. Both times, I scored an 8 on the essay portion. For the people who scored higher than an 8, how do you write your essays?
4. Finally, for the SAT IIs, I have already taken the Korean test and got a 800 on it. I’m planning to take 2 or 3 more(math II, biology, and chemistry). Which ones should I take because I think I only need to take two more?
