I heard the SHP test was hard. Whats on it? How hard is it? I also heard that the math section was hard - whats on it? - will studying the SAT Math IIC basically cover the math stuff on the test?
ok thanks

i asked this question before and this is what i got:

-Sci section covers earth sci, bio, chem, phys
- Math covers up to precalculus, difficulty is normal but those at the end are hard

Thats all i know. It sucks because i dont know precalc and phys yet, and plus i forgot all of earth sci

then again i heard this guy said he didnt know anything but still got in. i dunno maybe they judge highly on the rec, transcript, and essays

Of course they consider the rec, transcipt, and "essay" (I wrote mine in 5 minutes on the back of the application for God's sake), but the number one factor is the exam.
