Which tests to take?

<p>I got a 690 on the Math portion of the SAT, so I do not think I should take the Math SATII…</p>

<p>So what subject tests would you recommend? </p>

<p>Are there any subject tests that people are naturally good at or do you have to study to excel?</p>

<p>People are only “naturally good” at being breast fed. Yes, you actually have to study (Yeah, imagine that !!! . . . took me awhile to get over this one too . . . . )</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>that is not true with the SAT 1, so are you sure that is the case with SAT II’s?</p>

<p>Yes. And yes that it is also true about SAT I.</p>

<p>No. That is definitely not true about SAT I, many people are naturally good at the SAT I.
Now are SAT II’s similarly formatted to the SAT I where common sense can get you a high score like it can on CR?</p>

<p>And if so, which tests would be best for this?</p>

<p>SAT II’s do not test reasoning and logic the same way SAT I does. You actually need to know the subjects. I have prepared/taken Math II, Physics and US History. Its not a good idea to take any of the above 3 unless you have studied or taken corresponding courses at school. </p>

<p>P.S. Common sense is a childish way of reasoning and will not get you far.</p>

<p>Okay thank you YAHA that is what I have been asking from the start. But I don’t know why you included that little P.S. underhand assault</p>

<p>Well dang i do not know any subjects very well, maybe literature?</p>

<p>Or is literature like trivia questions about random books rather than analyzing paragraphs like on CR(which I excel at)</p>

<p>bump please^</p>

<p>Analysis… But you’ll find that it’s harder than the CR on the SAT I, and you need certain areas of knowledge.</p>

<p>There is an analysis subject test? I will take a look, any other rec’s?</p>

<p>Dude, seriously, if you have no idea what the tests are even like, just do basic research on the collegeboard website. That will tell you pretty much what the questions will be like and give you a good idea of which ones you might be good at.</p>

<p>what is wrong with me asking here in addition to looking elsewhere?</p>

<p>If you want to enter the engineering or science field, I’d suggest you study up and do Math II. I got a 690 on SAT Math, same as you, but I spent about 25 hours grinding Barron’s and Spark Notes for Math II and I took it today and I’m pretty sure I got an 800, or at least very close to one.</p>

<p>I’m taking the test in november so i better get studying! I’m thinking literature and bio or math II, i will have to study like crazy! what books should i buy?</p>

<p>What books do yall recommend for SAT lit/bio/math2? Which book has the most real tests?</p>

<p>actually i have not finished precal yet so i have decided to take lit and USHIST, what do you guys think about that?</p>

<p>Prep book ideas?</p>

<p>bump please, i only have until oct. 15 to decide!</p>

<p>excessive bump</p>

<p>Are lit and UShist usually pretty difficult? What prep books do you recommend?</p>
