Has anyone taken the physics test? I have never seen any model questions, but I just need to know whether the IB physics course will be enough to take the SAT physics.
Thanks alot
Thanks alot

i do recall getting a study book and finding it really useful. don't recall which brand, though.
might've been kaplan.

Yes, the SAT physics subject test is open to anyone who is planning to apply to colleges or universities that require or recommend it. However, it is typically taken by students who have completed a physics course and have a strong understanding of the subject.
The SAT physics subject test consists of 75 multiple-choice questions, divided into two sections: one with 35 questions on mechanics and one with 40 questions on electricity and magnetism. The test is 60 minutes long and is scored on a scale of 200-800.
To prepare for the SAT physics subject test, it is recommended to review the content covered in a typical high school physics course, as well as practice with sample questions and past exams. You can also consider taking a prep course or working with a tutor to help you prepare.
You can take the SAT physics subject test as many times as you want, but it is not recommended to take it more than 3 times unless you have significantly improved your knowledge and skills in the subject. Some colleges may also require you to submit all of your scores, so it is important to prepare and do your best on your first attempt.
No, all necessary materials, such as a calculator and formula sheet, will be provided by the testing center. However, it is recommended to bring a few sharpened pencils and a valid form of identification, such as a driver's license or school ID.
