i'm planning on taking sat2 math2c and biology, but i still need a third one...

i can't decide between literature, physics, or french. physics, i'll probably take it after i finish my regular physics course at school if i decide to take that one.. french, it would be after 3 years of french and hopefully a summer course? literature.. im in an honors english course but ehh, critical reading has always been my worst section on the SAT unsure.gif

anyone know which of those 3 subjects is harder? and if you were in my position.. which would be the ebest to take? smile.gif

French or Physics I'd say... or just do both. French seems like it would be better, but it all depends on your personal level of ability and what you'd like to do after HS.

omG. i got straight A's in my physics class, yet i found the physics sat to be horrible. HORRIBLE!!! i just took it yesterday. lol. i'm hoping i didn't fail it. if you take it, you should take it right after your physics class ends, so most of the info would be fresh in your head. I'd take french or literature if i were you.
your [warm smiles] keep me breathin...

I heard french was pretty hard
and I wouldn't take a language unless I was fluent
the percentiles are ridiculous for languages

^ Correct
Many native French speakers take French but French is widely offered in schools so there are still a lot of people who are not native French speakers taking the test. I completed 4 years of French and afterwards I spent my summer in France. Now I am in AP and Im still unsure whether to take the exam or not, but I think I will smile.gif

If you're confident that you are good in French (like you always score 90+ or you do better than your friends) then take the exam.

The French SATII is quite difficult.

If I were only going to take three, I'd take either the French or Literature, since you already have a science one.

The French SATII is hard? The Japanese SATII wasn't that hard though o_0 With 4 years of a language then time in that country I think you'd do fine.

Literature on the other hand, woo..Overall it was ok but for some of the things I'd have better luck sticking my head in a blender. You really need to get some previous SAT packets to see what level of study will prepare you for the literature SAT IIs
