Many of my friends studied for many of the sections...

Personally, I only studied for my SAT II Biology Molecular (and I was reading the book right up until the moment I was walking into the room, lol, didn't quite finish it...). Other than that, Math II, French, and the SAT Is, I did without studying... I suppose I'm lazy.

So, did any of you study, or are you planning on studying?

For SAT IIs maybe.

With the SAT, it's good to familiarise yourself with the format and shit but studying is a waste of time.

I'm pretty sure I've seen statistics show that students that study do better by a certain percentage on average.

But when it comes to the SAT IIs, depending on what you're taking, I find it hard NOT to study.  Depending on when you're taking you SAT IIs, you may not have finished the class that covers the information.

I didn't really. I took a practice test and called it good. Those were the old SATs though. Not sure how the new ones work.

Yeah, I did a practice test a year before I took them and stuff, so I knew the layout.

In terms of the new SAT, it just has another section (Writing) which has some questions, and then you have to write an essay.

I didn't study for my SAT or SAT II (World History, US History, Literature) exams, and did alright. If memory serves:

SAT: 1920/2400
World - 660
US - 720
Lit - 680

And hell, I go to one of the best schools (T15) in the country, so clearly they don't matter that much.
