  Just finishing up Princeton Review (Ch16). Took honors physics last year and I've been brushing up on topics for the last few weeks... going for 750+. Going to take the official practice test tonight and go over in detail tomorrow.
  
  Y'all feel ready? :D

  Update: Just finished grading my official SAT physics subject test (from the blue book) -- got an 800! Barely though (Raw score: 60, 59 is the cutoff). Phew!

  @Achanya I heard Barron's didn't cover enough topics which were on the test. Most people asked me to go for PR.

  @Achanya You're being sort of ridiculous, in my opinion... If you are getting straight 800s on Barron's, a test prep company that is notorious for making practice tests much harder than the real thing, then you should be more than fine. Calm down and do something fun this afternoon, you've earned it!

  Am I the only one who found PRs practice tests harder than Barron's?

  @seyll00 PR's comprehension questions could get pretty difficult. I didn't take any practice tests (no time) but when I took the official practice test last night I was surprised at how easy the questions were in comparison to PR Comprehension questions.
