 No explanations!?? October 22, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book comes in handy because it has great tips and sources coming right from the creator of the SAT's and also tells you what to expect on test day. The only problem is that it gives no explanations for the answers.There are explanations on the sample questions only, but there are none on the practice tests(there are eight practice tests). It is so frustrating, especially in the math section, don't just tell me the answer is "B", explain to me WHY it is "B" and HOW to solve the problem. If you want an effective and easy to understand study guide, I recommend "11 Practice tests for the SAT's and PSAT's" by the princeton review. That one actually explains the answers for every single question(both math and English) in the book. You can buy the college board's if you want great tips but don't rely on it for your practice tests because its not going to help.
 Great Book! October 13, 2008
well..
Firstly,it is a great book with useful deals for different part of SAT. I think this book is like Baron's "How to prepare for SAT",but it has more details and is from the test maker.
Secondly,as a official guide to SAT for people all around the world,it introduce SAT in a very detailed way,including some test skill.(though..just few..)
As a official guide,it can just present some common skills and reference. It cannot be a top reference book but a necessary book for SAT.
Thanks collegeboard for presenting such a great book for us.

I bought this book for my daughter. It is easy to navigate, well laid-out, and fairly clear and precise in its presentation.

Official book but needs better strategies July 28, 2008

I thought this is a straight forward book. It provides lots of examples but it is hard to sometimes learn from each questions (students I find keep making the same mistakes over and over).
Also, from the test maker I would like to see some more free material since they are making lots of money off of each student that takes the exam. If you are going to pay for a book, check out rocket revolution or Gruber's book for great material.
