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?

Replies pocky bot Posted at 7:12 pm on July 29, 2008 Yeah, I'll study for my SATs. I took the PSATs last year as a sophomore and I did OK. I scored pretty good on CR, but sucked at Math and did OK with Verbal. TigressaLynnMae Posted at 5:31 pm on July 28, 2008 I didn't take the SATs, but I took the ACTs, and I didn't study, at all. No point. You either know it, or you don't. Often, more than not, in the past, they didn't teach for the tests. Nor study before them. They just took them. snowfish Posted at 4:34 pm on July 28, 2008 yes, for the SATs. I got a 2120. I never took that SAT II's Just Waiting Here Posted at 10:49 am on July 28, 2008 Quote: from bryce101 at 1:01 am on July 28, 2008 i took the act and i got a 24.. i didnt really study. these tests arent really made to study for.. u shud know all the stuff from high school so im sure ull do fine if u passed highschool. its just like reading and random math The SAT IIs are different though.  Two of them I didn't have to study for, but there was no way to pass my biology one without studying for it.  And for other people that studied the for the SAT IIs, we hadn't even taken the highschool class for it yet.  Most colleges need your SAT scores by November-January, which means you would have to take it before you may have even taken a class. bryce101 Posted at 1:01 am on July 28, 2008 i took the act and i got a 24.. i didnt really study. these tests arent really made to study for.. u shud know all the stuff from high school so im sure ull do fine if u passed highschool. its just like reading and random math gprime Posted at 6:36 pm on July 22, 2008 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. oliveohm Posted at 10:29 pm on July 21, 2008 for the SAT i did three practice tests. seemed to help. i didn't take at SAT II's. xcutioners Posted at 7:41 pm on July 21, 2008 SAT I: 1510/2400 Study: Yes SAT II: Biology --> 520; study AP Bio booklet Math 1 --> 520; no study Math 2 --> 560; study AP Calculus Chinese --> 770 or 780; no study History --> 480; no study jennay Posted at 11:52 am on July 19, 2008 i did. not as much as i should have but i did Just Waiting Here Posted at 11:18 am on July 19, 2008 Quote: from Aratal at 10:52 am on July 19, 2008 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. SparklingFlower Posted at 11:01 am on July 19, 2008 I got those "prepare for the SAT books" and studied. I got a 1900. Aratal Posted at 10:52 am on July 19, 2008 I didn't really.

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. Permious Posted at 10:46 am on July 19, 2008 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. ayyy Posted at 10:45 am on July 19, 2008 no i will not study for the s.a.t.. if you know it you know it ,if you dont you dont...studying wont help Most recent 15 of 19 previous replies displayed.
