How well does an A-level student usually in SAT 2? Because I heard that it was supposedly 'easier' than the A-levels. Are the syllabuses the same or different?
I'll be giving Chemistry, Biology and Physics in a weeks time

I am an a level student and I recently wrote SAT subject tests for maths phy and chemistry. I haven't received my scores as yet but I found my SAT exam harder than Alevels. The problem that I faced was timing my exam.

lucky you. Did you study separately for SAT or did you just use the stuff you'd already learned in A-levels?
Well I completed my Alevels Alhamdullilah in January 2013. Since it was a huge gap , I had to refer to Barron's for my SAT

Although I have heard that Alevels is enough for SAT but after writing the exam I think the course is a little different .

My center was Al Sanawber (sp?) school, which is in the UAE.
Chemistry drove me mad, i couldnt stop thinking about how stupid it was, lol. But anything is better than SAT 1. That drove me up the wall.
So, why did you give SAT2?

yeah, they have time for everything but studying.
We were supposed to have a 5 minute break, and i was just finishing up the last couple of circles that needed to be shaded, and this one guy just stands right in front of my desk and starts memorizing the order of my answers or whatever.
i was like, o_O, and then i just got mad. So i told him that i guessed all my answers and that i was going to fail, so he left
where was your center?

My centre was Saint Andrew's college. I had a very strict environment. One invigilator for every 8 students and no one could dare to cheat

My invigilator made sure we stopped writing the moment the time ended. So did the SAT people sent you an email saying that you have written the exam or anything ?

My sister is studying in AMC, so i took the SAT to apply there as a foreign student. I also wanted to apply to Foji Foundation.
KMC was also an option, me being from Peshawar and all, as well as it being the family's alma mater.
What field are you trying for?

I am a Pathan :)
I was planning to apply for engineering and medicine. I do not plan to apply in AMC but I am thinking about KMC. Nust will accept any score as long as you apply on a foreign seat so do not worry. FUMC is good too. Do try Riphah international and shifa international and FMDC and CMH and Agha khan and and sheikh zaid university. Oh god we have so many unis for medicine !
