SAT Subject Test Mathematics Level 2

(Marvins-Underground-K-12) #1

Level 2 is weighted toward the more advanced topics, but it still tests your understanding of the
basics. For example, Level 2 has no plane geometry questions. But to do a lot of the more advanced
Level 2 questions—solid geometry, coordinate geometry, trigonometry—you have to know all about
plane geometry.


FIRM UP THE FOUNDATIONS


Don’t   review  math    haphazardly.    Start   with    the fundamentals    and work    your    way up  to  more
advanced and esoteric topics.

The topics listed in the chart above are not equally difficult. However, they do overlap. Think about
how you learned these subjects. You didn’t start with trigonometry or functions, did you? Of course
not. Math is cumulative. Advanced subjects are built upon basic subjects. Firm up the foundations
and work your way up to more advanced topics.


The emphasis in Level 1 is on the foundations, while in Level 2 it’s more on the advanced topics. But
because the more advanced topics are built upon the basics, it can be said that for Level 2 you need
to know everything that’s tested on Level 1, plus a lot more.
