<p>I’m using Kaplan to study for this and I’m a little unsure about the practice tests…
I got a 610 on the first Kaplan practice test but a 760 on the practice test in the “Real SAT” book. I’m hoping the blue book is more accurate. Did anyone else find the Kaplan tests hard?</p>
<p>i thought the kaplan tests were a lot tougher than the real SAT IIs test.</p>
<p>we’ll see how the actual one is.</p>
<p>btw, if the real sat II test the only released world history test?</p>
<p>also, out of curiosity, are the practice exams from kaplan 2006-2007 different from the 05-06 ones? if so, i need to get the new one too… uggh :(</p>
<p>Generally the tests stay the same, so I wouldn’t bother buying a new book.</p>
<p>What do you think is a decent score, is it getting about a 700?</p>
<p>Can someone explain the different types of art, cause I can’t find it in the Kaplan book.
Difference between like impressionism, realism, cubism, neoclassicism, renaissance, byzantine, medieval.</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>decent score ~ 750-760</p>
<p>cubism - using cubes? idk lol
realism - more realistic features
renaissance - humanistic art forms</p>
<p>Keep in mind that the test is mostly Eurocentric. Most of the questions on the test are going to be about Europe so I wouldn’t worry too much if you don’t know a little bit of the non-European stuff.</p>
