WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT SAT II: SUBJECT TESTS
The Importance of Subject Tests for College Admission
Many of our nation’s colleges insist that applicants take one or more SAT II: Subject Tests. If you are applying to a school that requires you to take Subject Tests, you should be aware that the results of the tests are not the sole factor in determining if you will be admitted. Other factors come into play: your SAT I scores, high school scholastic record, standing in your graduating class, grades in specific high school subjects, and the personal interview. Doing well on your Subject Tests, however, may substantially increase your chances of being accepted by the college of your choice.

The Subject Tests are administered throughout the world, and thousands take the exams annually.
The College Entrance Examination Board (CEEB), which administers the tests, will send to the college admissions officer not only your score on the test you take but also your percentile ranking. The latter tells how many test takers did better than you and how many did worse. It follows, therefore, that the admissions officer seriously considers your standing on each Subject Test that you offer to determine how well you are likely to do in college work.

HIGH MARKS IN SCHOOL ARE NOT ENOUGH
Since secondary schools have varying standards of grading, it is understandable that high school marks alone will not suffice when colleges try to appraise objectively the ability of an undergraduate to do college work. An “A” in a course of English in High School X may be worth a “C” in High School Y.
Moreover, teachers within the same high school differ among themselves in grading techniques. The Subject Tests are highly objective. Consequently, they have become a sine qua non for many college admissions officers in order to predict success or lack of success for applicants.

What the Mathematics Tests Are Like
Each Mathematics Subject Test consists of 50 multiple-choice questions with answer choices from (A) to (E). The questions are designed to test the mathematical competence of students who have studied college-preparatory mathematics—Level I for three years of study and Level II for more than three years of study. Obviously, an examination testing three or more years of study touches very briefly on a great many topics and concepts. Both levels of the Mathematics Subject Tests measure understanding of elementary algebra, three-dimensional geometry, coordinate geometry, statistics, and basic trigonometry.
The Level II exam tests these topics with more advanced content. For example: While the Level I exam includes questions on plane geometry, the Level II exam covers transformations and coordinate geometry in two or three dimensions; while the Level I trigonometry questions are based on right-triangle trigonometry and the fundamental relationships among the trigonometric ratios, the Level II test examines understanding of the properties and graphs of the trigonometric functions, the inverse trigonometric functions, trigonometric equations and identities, and the law of sines and cosines; Level I functions are mainly algebraic functions, while Level II functions extend to the more advanced logarithmic and exponential functions; Level II statistics go beyond mean, median, mode, counting, and data interpretation to questions on probability, permutations, and combinations; the miscellaneous topics covered at Level II go beyond simple logic, elementary number theory, and arithmetic and geometric sequences to include logic and proofs and limits.
In addition, the emphasis on various topics varies between the two levels. Half of the questions at Level I are directed at algebra and plane geometry and another quarter of the questions measure understanding of coordinate geometry and functions. At Level II, on the other hand, plane geometry is not tested at all, but nearly half of the questions are concentrated on trigonometry and functions. Level II devotes twice as many questions to miscellaneous topics as does Level I.
