Idea: why can't we substitute SATII math score for SATI math score?

<p>am i the only one who gets better scores for SATII math II than for SATI math?</p>

<p>I gave a relevant response recently:</p>

<p>Essentially, one test is an achievement metric, and the other is an aptitude test. Of course, they each test some of both, but overall that is the case.</p>

<p>…and the SAT II Math 2 has a better curve. You could get 6 wrong and still get a 800, whereas -1 for SAT I Math is below 800. (that’s not the point though)</p>

<p>The above is correct. It’s the same reason why you can’t substitute Literature for Critical Reading. They’re similar, but it’s not the same thing.</p>
