Bio SATII

How well do you think I'll do on the Bio SATII if I were to take it tomorrow?
I'm in AP Bio (we're using the seventh ed. biology textbook by Campbell) and we just went through the basic chemistry of life, cell structure and function, and photosynthesis.
Would it be better to not take Bio?

I didn't take the sat subject test in bio until may of the year i took AP Bio (score:5). I got a 720. Hopefully you studied some of the later chapters in the book, like plants, the human body, etc.

I studied a little, not that much.
How much of the test is about plants and how much of it is about the human body?
Are the questions very deep and detailed?

When I took it, I remember there being 5-6 questions about plants (structure, growth, specific cells, etc).

It depends on whether you take E or M. Which one are you taking?

I used the same textbook. If you are going in order (starting at ch. 1, 2, 3, etc) the I think it would be better for you to take M since it has more about the chemistry aspects of biology. It might just be better to look at both sections tomorrow and decide which one you are better prepared for.

It definitely wasn't as detailed as the AP exam though

I'm in AP Bio, and so far the course has covered 8/16 chapters in the Barron's SAT Biology review guide. In a period of 10 days, I reviewed the 8 chapters we covered in class and studied the 8 new chapters, hoping for 780-800 on Biology-Molecular after taking the test, which I thought was quite easy, by the way.
