<p>^Woah a huge rant there beeish haha jk I have to say that Maths II curve was quite lenient for me I left 3 questions blank because I couldnt be bothered to do all the algrebra and still got 800 and 'm pretty sure I did sume stupid mistakes along the way. </p>
<p>AND OMG MY TURN TO RANT: I realised that you can start registering for oct/nov SATs a week ago and went to sign up just then AND OMG the sydney centre’s listening seats are FULL!! Omg now if I want to do my language lang test I’ve to go adelaide, brisbane or hobart!! I’m feeling so sad and stupid now and now I’m considering the lit test even though I suck at reading poems etc :(</p>
<p>And to cheer me up, did anyone do physics SAT II and can rec a good review book for me since i need to self-study parts of it?</p>
<p>haha dont ask me about the literature. i did it and only decided to do it on that day. therefore i did not prepare for it at all. not a good option.
id definitely recommend finding a source of questions on the net or something at least.</p>
<p>Aininor, I think sparknotes is good enough for Physics to be honest. The concepts are quite straight-forward and if you’ve done Physics in school, there’s nothing new. Heck, sparknotes went into <em>too</em> much detail even.</p>
<p>But yeah, I don’t believe you need to find a book for it, just abuse sparknotes. =) I did, and I did well enough in my SAT Physics.</p>
<p>With beeish in full rant mode, this thread is alive and kicking. Keep up the good work, folks! And don’t worry about the SAT too much, coz you boys and girls will be able to abuse - to borrow a word from Shoyz - the SAT Score Choice. Happy SATting!!</p>
<p>I don’t rant, I just ramble, there IS a difference besides I wasn’t the one who “exploded” this thread, I just often give my two cents, or in most cases, my like 10 dollars!</p>
<p>OMG I found the CUTEST cafe today! Just for everyone’s information. Sat there and did my French revision for my placement test (placement test bleugh) but they made goooood mocha :)</p>
<p>it was nice okay nice. And quaint there you go. I did my SATs I don’t have to do them again ergo I can use whatever sucky vocab I want. I used superfluous and hyperbolic in my college essays therefore I used my SAT vocab for some good use and now I can forget it :)</p>
<p>Hi i’m from New Zealand i posted on this board last year at some point.
I’m going on a year long exchange next year to Switzerland which could be handy as NZ has very few test centers although it could make things harder and rather annoying in the way of applications grades and extra-curricular.
how do US colleges see exchanges?
also where’s everyone applying to?
and where do you buy your SAT guides?</p>
<p>exchange students - nothing special in my opinion as long as you make the experience some sort of an essay topic, or use it as an opportunity to improve your langauge skills and show for it through SAT subject tests or something. But just my thoughts, ask the schools your applying to and get the official views of each school. </p>
<p>SAT guides - I got mine from big book stores in korea. but in places like swiss or nz i’d recommed the internet. amazon.com or something.<br>
good luck</p>
