Don't stress about it too much. Your scores are only relevant to a certain extent. I'm surprised you are taking the SAT II's, you really only need those if you are going into a specialized program, like for a master's degree. I took the SAT's and the ACT's and if you know how to work the tests it isn't too bad. For the SAT's because you get points taken off if you get a question wrong, you should skip the questions you don't know the answer to. The ACT's don't have that penalty system so you should answer every question, even if it's just a guess. Those practice tests are extremely helpful too; they get you used to the test format and everything. You can get some free practice tests online I believe, and a book with strategy and a bunch of practice tests is only about $30. Your PSAT's will be a snap. It's great practice for the SAT's and it doesn't necessarily count for anything. I took the MAT (Miller Analogies Test) about two years ago for grad school, and that test is ridiculous. It's 100 questions, one point each. The

Thanks, that makes me feel better. My sister couldn't apply to some of her choice schools because she hadn't taken the proper tests, and I want to avoid that. I took the PSATs and kicked ass, so I'm not worried about that, and I have a lot of prep books. Good luck with any of your future schooling.
