My Sat 2 Math subject level 2 is on this saturday. I've been studying, taking practice tests. Averaging around 1-3 wrong + 1-2 skips a practice test, hoping to get 800.
My first Sat 2 test, any tips, hints, advice? Things to bring, things to remember, etc? Any help would be much appreciated! :) #nervous

Breathe, relax, don't rush, double and even triple check, don't make silly mistakes, try doing the "easy" ones first to save time at the end for the harder ones

Bring pnecils, sleep a lot the night before, get a nice breakfast in but nothing that upsets your stomach, drink water, breathe.

Thanks, do you think studying right before like (1hour/5minutes) before the test is a good idea? Or just let my mind relax after studying the day before?

It's good to go over some of the concepts, basic rules, and fundamentals before the test so it's "fresh" in your mind.
If you master those, then everything else should come easy.

It shouldn't be that bad.
It's multiple choice, too, so you may be able to eliminate some answers right off the bat.

that depends on your personality
myself i needed to relax (ie a minimum of sleep) before exams
while my wife performed best when learning till the last second
ask yourself how much you can rely on short term memory
