A question about math&biology

<p>Hi I have a few questions.</p>

<p>I’m about to take the SAT subject test in math and in biology.</p>

<p>I’m not American, and English is not the language I’m speaking at home, I’m from Israel and we speak Hebrew, and I wanted to know if and how it will be possible to have an aid as a translator (dictionary of Hebrew-English or electronic) during the tests, especially in math when the terms is very different and confusing. </p>

<p>The test needs to test my math skills and not my English skill. Somebody knows if that possible? Who I need to contact to get an answer? </p>

<p>My second question is about the differences between math level 1 and level 2.</p>

<p>1) Can I take both of them at the same date?
2) What is the difference in the scoring between them to?
3) What is the equation between them? For example, 750 in level 1 is equal to 650 in level 2? What is the key?</p>

<p>Thank you very much for answering, Geut</p>

<p>You are not going to get a translator. </p>

<p>Second question:</p>

<ol>
<li>Yes, I did it twice.</li>
<li>Math 2 has more advanced content and as such has a more lenient curve to correct for the fact that not all curricula cover the same contet. Math 1 has basic content that everyone has seen but there is no curve, basically.</li>
<li>700 Math 1 = 700 Math 2. That’s why we have a curve so that they’re roughly equivalent.</li>
</ol>
