I’m a full IB (International Baccalaureate) candidate studying for the bio M SAT II. I’m a strong, well-rounded (undecided major) student. I’m testing in October (just a week left… oh dear) and feel intimidated by the amazing scores posted on CC. It looks from my knowledge of AP that most SAT IIs are designed for that curriculum… meaning an IB student (no matter how strong) is at a disadvantage. (I’ve had to learn human physiology and plants on my own.)

So, my question is: any idea if admissions officers consider high school classes when reviewing a student’s SAT II scores? Will they take pity on us IB kids? (at least when it comes to science and history tests)

bonus question: any bio M prep tips? lol
