Luckymama Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 As long as you stay flexible! Due to dd's ever-changing interests (and widely disparate strengths) I cannot even get a good grasp on next year :eek: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luckymama Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 You might consider a Math Subject test. The Chem and Physics Subject tests have hard curves because so many kids finishing AP also take the corresponding SAT II. I'm not sure about the Bio ones.

My3girls Posted February 12, 2015 Author Share Posted February 12, 2015 Ok, I wasn't sure if she should do the SAT II since she was doing AP. IF she does, should she do it after Pre-Calc or after AP Calc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luckymama Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 The Math 2 exam should be taken immediately after finishing pre-calculus. It does not cover any calculus at all. Common wisdom is to take the Math subject test after finishing the relevant class (algebra 2 for Math 1, precalculus for Math 2), even if you don't think the student will need it. It's much better to take it and not need it than it is to scramble fall of senior year to remember the math from year(s) ago! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
