SERIOUSLY! Why can't I pass the math SATII test?

Question

On the practice test: (http://www.collegeboard.com/prod_downloads/prof/counselors/tests/sat/2006-07-SAT-subject-tests-preparation-booklet.pdf) I can't pass either Level 1 or Level 2! I've taken Algebra I and II, geometry, trigonometry, pre-calculus, and calculus 1 and I STILL CAN'T GET EVEN 1 question right... in either section! What is wrong with me?! Or is there something wrong with this sample test? I've studied and studied and studied some more, but I have no idea what this is talking about! I get 35s and 36s on my practice ACT math tests, yet this SAT subject test is impossible for me to complete! HELP PLEASE! Suggest something to study, tell me how you passed it, etc., etc., etc.! I need some sort of help!

The link I gave doesn't work for some reason... try this one instead:

Answer 1

Well, your problem is probably that you might be treating these questions like ones one a math test (That's why on the ACT you got a 35-36 because it tests stuff you learned in high school.)! The SATs are not always like that- You have to stop thinking too hard, and think more logically about the question. That's basically all these are, logic questions.

Answer 2

getting a TI-89 might be helpful. It can do half those problems and you don't really have to think. Just enter in the equation. For the other half you are having trouble with ...you might want to get a prep book. Try Barrons SAT II Math. The questions are a bit harder than the actual test, but it should help you out in the end.

Answer 3

Sorry, yet that's not a bypass. many times over 50% is a bypass yet on occasion you could redo the attempt to get a greater physically powerful score? relies upon what college you bypass to. A bypass could be a C or D or a passable
