  In light of the recent experimental results on decays $B^+ \to f_X(1300) K^+$
and $B^{\pm(0)} \to J/\psi K_X^{*\pm(0)}(1430)$ from Belle, we study the $B \to
P(V) S$ type decays, $B^{\pm(0)} \to f_0(1370) K^{\pm(0)}$ and $B^{\pm(0)} \to
J/\psi K_0^{*\pm(0)}(1430)$, in comparison with the $B \to P(V) T$ type decays,
$B^{\pm(0)} \to f_2(1270) K^{\pm(0)}$ and $B^{\pm(0)} \to J/\psi
K_2^{*\pm(0)}(1430)$. We calculate the BRs for these decays by using the form
factors obtained in the ISGW2 model [the improved version of the original
Isgur-Scora-Grinstein-Wise (ISGW) model], as well as the ISGW model for
comparison. The ratios of ${\cal B}(B \to P(V)S) / {\cal B}(B \to P(V)T)$ are
also presented.
