I am taking the SAT 1 in May or October. I already took the Bio M SAT in June 2014, and I plan to take the Math II and Chemistry exam in June. idk when to take the ACT
Same (about the ACT part)
I’m going to study and take prep classes for the SAT this summer so I will be prepared to take it in October. I kind of want to take the SAT this coming June, but I’ve decided to focus more on academics and service learning (which I need for Government and NHS).
My school is very picky about when they want kids to take the SAT. I think they suggest that I take the SAT/ACT in the fall and spring of junior year.
I’m not sure when I’m taking the SAT or ACT. My parents want me to do prep (I don’t want to; I score high enough on practice tests as is), so it may end up being in September or October…
Does anyone know of good practice books for the Math II? I am probably taking it in June.
@photogeek8 According to http://collegeprepfaq.com/sat-ii-subject-tests the best book by far for the Math SAT II is Barron’s. The website says it is challenging (“intensive study sessions”), but is good if you want to earn a great score. This is as of August 2014, so it is pretty recent.
I think I’m taking the SAT in June just to see how I’ll do without studying. Then I’ll take it again in the fall after studying over the summer. I’m trying to avoid taking the new SAT haha.
Do you all think taking 3 Subject tests on the same day would be a good idea? They would be Chemistry, Math 2, and World History. If not, I’ll just take Chemistry and Math 2.
Yeah, sounds fine, @dsi411. A lot of people do that.
I’m really struggling to decide whether or not I should take the French subject test… I definitely want to do lit in May, and I’ll very likely go for world history on the same day, but I just don’t know if I’m ready for the French test. :-S
@petitlion
Have you done a practice test for it?
I feel like I’m probably going to end up taking too many subject tests–I’ve already taken Bio (although I have no idea why), I’ll be taking Math II and Chem in June, and I’m thinking about taking Spanish (to show I’ve achieved proficiency, since I probably won’t be taking Spanish 4).
@topaz1116 If you have taken Bio Honors, do you recommend taking the SAT Subject Test Bio?
Lol, I will try take the SAT Math I during May. Over the summer, I plan on prepping for PSAT, SAT, and Math II.
@dsi411 Are you in Chem Honors or AP Chem when you take the SAT Chem Test?
@Apollo11 I’m in AP French right now, so I’ve taken the practice tests in the Barron’s textbook, but I haven’t taken the one on the College Board website.
@1LuckyBrave I would take the SAT Bio.
— for all of you… i suggest taking the AP Course of the subject SAT test before taking the SAT for it
@SallyStephens depends on the school. Most people at my school take subject tests for Bio and Chem after Honors Bio/Honors Chem, and Math II after Honors Precalc.
@1LuckyBrave that’s how I did it. I had to study quite a bit, though, since I got the one Honors Bio teacher who didn’t teach anything at all and went as slow as the nonhonors classes (basically why I don’t even know why I took it). Those who had the other two Honors Bio teachers last year fared much better.
@1LuckyBrave This is a bit late but I’m in AP Chem right now.
