Need serious advice for time management on Math II!!

Okay!

So basically even though I'm in AP Calculus BC no one ever taught me some of the math II material such as polar coordinates, parametric functions, and matrices. So I've learned them the past two weeks.

I'm been working with Barrons and it is super hard.
I took a Spark Notes test since I heard it was more reflective of the real test (+30 points more than what you'd probably get).

So I took the Spark Notes and got a 780! Yay! (Left 3 blank, got 5 wrong)

Problem is, it took me 112 minutes!!!!!! Instead of 60. : (

Obviously this is because the material is new to me and thus takes me longer to figure it out.

Any advice to help me drastically improve my time in a week??? I really need above a 700!!

Thanks!!!!!!

Barron's is way too hard. Get all the practice books you can and just do them over, and over, and over.
