June 2010: Biology

<p>lol any idea what the curve was??? is it always this many 800s or is it just cuz im on CC… lol</p>

<p>790 - M…was hoping for a perfect score but I’m content</p>

<p>I cannot believe it. 790 on Bio-M!! The curve is extremely generous. I thought I was going to get like 700-720 and then retake it in the fall. But man, was I wrong. Can we check the percentiles now or no?</p>

<p>I am a freshman taking a NYS Regents Course in Living Environment (got 93 on that -.-) which is extremely easy compared to this. Well I have a 96 in Bio :smiley: I was lucky that the science teachers in my school teach more than the regents. </p>

<p>Other than that I used PR and Barron’s. I thought PR wasn’t useful a lot because they focused on the life functions and there really weren’t that many on the SAT II. And it would’ve helped if they had the diagram for the Stem cross section question <.<
But a PR+Barrons is a good combo. But I focused on PR because I think Barrons went way too in depth (they said we needed to know the parts of the eye and ear o.O)</p>

<p>^I agree that PR + Barrons is the best combo for the SAT II Bio exam. While Barrons can be a bit detailed, it covers just about everything you’ll need to know on the exam. Also, the eye and the ear have appeared on past exams, so its nice if Barrons includes that. </p>

<p>Edit: The ear actually appeared in May 2010’s test</p>

<p>I got a 760::

<p>Oh I see well luckily it didn’t appear on this test x_x
Are we able to check percentiles now or not?
I want to know how generous this curve was XD Luckily Colleges do not check raw scores</p>

<p>750 Biology-M…debating whether I should retake. I’m really kind of disappointed - I SWORE I did better, but I suppose not. :/</p>

<p>I think it says percentiles on June 29th, but not sure.</p>

<p>Can someone give me the link to the website where we get our scores? Please fast I am eager to know my score!!! Lol!!!</p>

<p>Thanks. And desigirl, what did you get? You were freaking out about your score lol…I got a 760-E…ok not bad</p>

<p>800 Biology M
First time freshman.</p>

<p>:)</p>

<p>770 Bio M. An Ok score, I know I could’ve done better but its not really worth retaking.</p>

<p>Does anyone else think the curve for the M test must have been HUGE???</p>

<p>I do. I thought I had around 10 wrong with no omits and I got 790.</p>

<p>I was fairly dissapointed with a 730, since the percentile is not that great. I prob should have studied more. What did the people who got 790 or 800 study from?</p>

<p>bio-m</p>

<p>-5, 800! :slight_smile: lol im really happy</p>

<p>800 Bio - M!
Super happy!</p>

<p>I have seen many 800s for M. Did anyone score 800 on E?</p>

<p>There were a few 800’s for E. it must have been a big curve. I’m disappointed with a 760, but anything above a 750 is “acceptable” for an ivy, I guess</p>
