SAT&subject tests.. help..?

Question

I am a rising sophomore, and I am planning to take SAT and subject tests soon..

I want to know how I can study for SAT and the vocabularies..

also.. I want to go to medical school so I will be taking biology subject test. do I have to take both E and M or just one for them?? also.. for a medical school, what other subject tests i should take. and how to study them. and what is the perfect score on the tests.. i know that SAT is 2600.

thanks. =]

Answer 1

in biology, there are 60 questions everyone takes, then 20 if you choose E and 20 if you choose M, so 80 total. You choose whichever you think you're best at, not both. I took Biology E, Math level 2, and US history. It doesnt really matter what you want to do, just take a few. A perfect score on subject tests is 800, and SAT is 2400 not 2600, ad the ACT is 36

Answer 2

Well, first off, a perfect score on the SAT is a 2400, not 2600. And for each subject test, the highest is 800. In addition to Biology, you should also take Math (Level 2 preferably) and another one in another field to show that you are well-rounded.

As for studying for the SAT, buy a review book to familarize yourself with the test. It can give you helpful tips and tricks to use during the test and it will allow you to get to know the test before the real thing with practice exams.

Hope this helps and good luck :)

You can't take both E and M in the same sitting, you have to pick one. E is the environmental science, which is on ecosystems and how the body works. M is molecular science, which has to do with cell division and cellular respiration. i would recommend you take the subject test if you have taken the AP biology class, because there was a lot of things that i only learned in my AP class, and not the honors one. but there is also books you can buy to help you study for it. if you want to go into medicine you should probably do the molecular. you should also probably take chemistry and math. but be careful with math, because some schools only take math 2. and for math 2 is really helps to have up to pre-calc.

med schools are probably not going to see your subject tests scores. first you need to go to college and get a degree in science or pre-med. then you have to take another type of test and you apply to med school (kinda like post-graduate). it's a while away. to focused on find a good college with a pre-med program.
