I found physics to be easier, because I have a higher score on it than Bio.

I'm in the same situation as you: never taken any AP science classes, yet need a science subject test. I'll probably be going with Bio as self-studying now will prepare me for my Spring AP Bio class.

^^pakalypse has a good point.

Physics if you're good at math and can quickly learn that F=ma and apply it to everything. oh, and opposites attract and likes repel, it's good to know that too.

Chem, if you haven't taken ap or if you haven't done any self-studying, I would not recommend.

Bio, it's life baby. So learn it, love it, and cherish it.

I took chem 2 months into AP (when we'd basically only done a few things outside of review of 10th grade Chem) and got a 670.

To me, Chem is easiest...there aren't AP Bio or Chem classes at my school and science is not my strong suit, but I'd have done worse on Bio or Physics SATs compared to Chem, which I took in June.

I personally think physics is the easiest. The curve is good; you can usually afford to miss 7 or 8 and still get an 800.

Chemistry is the only test I have experience with. From that perspective, it's definitely manageable with self-study. Took Honors in 10th grade, but to be fully honest I remembered absolutely nothing about it. Self studied for a month and a half, while taking AP Chem for a month and a half, using Barron's SAT Chemistry (aka God's True Bible), and got an 800 this past October.

Seems they're all manageable. Go with the one you like most.

Chem - 750 in Oct. It was easy after taking AP Chem and studying for the AP Exam last school year.

Math II is the easiest for me. 35 minutes for 800. Physics is the most difficult for me since it takes quite a lot of time
