SATII BIO : is PR practice test accurate?

So, all along, I've been studying for Bio. I'm taking it this saturday, and when I take the
sparknotes tests +PR practice tests, I get 600s.
I need a score 700+, and if these sparknotes and PR tests are accurate..I'm doomed/
Are PR tests accurate? The practice tests covered so much stuff the actual book didn't even explain. This is the only book I have!!!
With one day left, what do you recommend I do?

1) Just take it; PR tests are inaccurate.
2) Take a diff. subject

Well here's the thing. I can either take Latin or Korean.
I'm really not that good at latin, so not really sure whether I can pull off a 700.
I am positive I can get an 800 in Korean..cuz I am Korean ..
But there's really no point in taking the korean subject test since I have korean citizenship..

Help me

Anyone else want to list their sparknotes/any review book scores and actual bio scores so we can gauge how accurate they are?

Is the material on the sparknotests easier or harder than the actual thing?
Is the scoring easier/harder?

I got an 800 on PR, and 630 in the BB. i think PR is a lot easier. its really tailored to the material that it covers so it feels like an extra long 'chapter review'. i was shocked at my 630..OTL|| fml

I found PR to be fairly accurate (especially for Biology E). However, my score on the actual test was a little higher (about 30-60 points).
