<p>i rly dont want to cancel cuz i want to know where i stand, so i can get like an 800 in junior year, but…im just nervous, colleges will look at the score! and idk how i did…i want to retake it in october, but i heard its rly hard? is that true?</p>
<p>should i retake guyz? or just hang on to it…considerin that im only a freshman?</p>
<p>what was the answer to the rabbit question on the Biology E? It was about the result of killing australian rabbits that were overpopulated with a virus.</p>
<p>@desigirl23,</p>
<p>don’t cancel your score. If you didn’t do as well as you wanted to, don’t send your score to the college. Most colleges take only 3 SAT Subject Test scores. So you can always send 3 other ones that you did well on and ignore the biology one if you did bad…people only cancel if they are positive they will send a biology score to a college. I’m a freshman too and I’m not going to cancel. Take my advice and don’t cancel.</p>
<p>desigirl, its ok. im a freshman too. you can retake it after AP bio or this october, the curve doesn’t have to be leniant for you to do good, and you’ll be fine. Overreacting will get you nowhere; i’m sure you did fine. If you didn’t retake it after AP bio – it will be easier then</p>
<p>alright thanks! but, im def gonna take it after AP Bio, but who knows? maybe i did do well, i usually freak out alot! and whenever i think i do bad, i always end up doing good, but idk, im still frightened. but ill just wait and see. anyone here a freshman too?</p>
<p>I am… I took it after an A+. I was still way to underprepared but I managed to reason through many of them.</p>
<p>haha desigirl23, i think i’m in the same boat as you Dx
i’m a freshman too who spent a ridiculous amount of time and energy preparing for this, only to make some really stupid mistakes and get thrown off by plants and have a ton confirmed wrong.
i’ve been asking everyone if i should cancel or not, and i think it’s good to just leave your score. that way you’ll know where you stand in relevance to others, and even colleges who want to see all your sat2 scores will pretty much take your highest into consideration xD</p>
<p>I’m not going to cancel since I think I am just going to retake it if I don’t make my goal.</p>
<p>DesGirl dont freak…last time I KNEW i had at least 7 wrong possibly more, I got a 740 ull be fine, dont cancel</p>
<p>this isnt related to Bio but generally to SAT IIs</p>
<p>I took WH and i think i didnt do that hot but im not going to be sending this score to my colleges that i want to goto. i think that i did ok in Bio so should i cancel or not? also, when’s the deadline for cancelling?</p>
<p>thanks</p>
<p>violinplayer, i think u have the next 2 hours to cancel ur score…if not then u have till thursday 12 o clock</p>
<p>but dont cancel…u may be surprised at what u get :)</p>
<p>wasnt it Wednesday 11:59 PM to cancel?</p>
<p>Colleges dont care about history that much >.></p>
<p>How many do you suspect you got wrong anyways?</p>
<p>i dont know actually… more than 15 but we only went thru 52 of the questions >.> I dont really want to take World History again but if i cancel it i would have to take bio again too</p>
<p>What could be a potential score for 3 omit, and 5-10 wrong(max) according to the curve? </p>
<p>Any input is appreciated, I’m debating whether or not to cancel right now</p>
<p>by the way, just wanted to clarify for you folks: the animal matching question on antennae read “has head with two PAIRS of antennae.” the answer is NOT butterfly, but crayfish. crustaceans have two pairs of antennae.</p>
<p>“Crustaceans bear two pairs of antennae. The first pair are uniramous and are often referred to as antennules, while the second pair are biramous, meaning that each antenna is composed of two parts, joined at their base [8]. In most adults, the antenna are sensory organs, but they are used by the nauplius larva for swimming. In some groups of crustaceans, such as the spiny lobsters and slipper lobsters, the second antennae are enlarged, while in others, such as crabs, the antennae are reduced in size.”</p>

<p>if you go by a former curve for bio e,
3 omit, 5 wrong is 760
3 omit, 7 wrong is 740
3 omit, 9 wrong is 730</p>
<p>the worst you can do for an 800 is 2 wrong+1 omit (77/80)</p>
<p>thanks no_audio : )</p>
<p>and I’m glad you clarified the antenna question, I was worried that I read the question wrong because I remembered that it was 2 pairs…and put crayfish, when everyone else agreed the answer was butterfly</p>
<p>for the “which least contributes to rose variety” i’m pretty sure the answer is self-pollination. human selection keeps many species around that may have otherwise been selected against by nature (kind of like how cute species of dogs are around) and therefore increases variety.</p>
