- Excellent Study Guide
I took the SAT back in fall and came back with the egregious score of 1800, so I began studying. I weighed my options and picked this book. The reasons were: the explanations after every section more than suffice to understand why I missed the question; the math section is very comparable to the actual exam, using the same tricky wording and problems; also the reading selections I found quite interesting and also pretty challenging. Well in all, I came out with a 2250 on the May examination. Keep in mind, it really is just practice, I really enjoyed this book, but almost any book out there can produce the same result.

- Princeton Review=Not realistic
I took the SAT in October and decided to take it again in May.

The first time I took the test I used the College Board's "Official SAT Book." I found it to be very realistic and even more difficult than the real test - which I think is a good thing. The downside to the book was that when I ran into a problem I didn't know - I had to ask someone for help - because I was stuck on my own. As inconvenient as that was - I must say I was pleased when it came to test day.

When I decided to take the test in May (and needed some refreshing) I decided to get the Princeton Review book that time - because of the explanation section it had in the back. I thought this would really alleviate the hassle and annoyance of being stuck on a problem with nothing to do to help me. Unfortunately, when it came test day I felt very astounded. I felt the questions on the REAL TEST were not nearly the same as the ... Read More

- Lots of practice leads to substantial score improvements
The best way for students to really learn effective test taking techniques and strategies is to do lots of practice. That's just what this book offers. With 10 complete SAT tests (the eleventh is a PSAT test), it contains more than enough practice test material for even the most dedicated student. Princeton Review has done a commendable job creating practice tests that closely mimic the actual SAT. Another useful feature is an explanation for every test question of why the correct answer is the best choice and what is wrong with the other choices.

If you only want to buy one SAT book, this isn't it - so no 5 star rating. As a supplemental workbook for a class or a book on test strategies and techniques, it is ideal. (Note: I sometimes teach and tutor for Princeton Review.)

- FAKE QUESTIONS
The practice tests in this book are NOT REAL. They are simulated. So who cares? Because the official SAT questions are DIFFERENT. This is like practicing mountain biking when you are going to go road biking.

Buy the Official SAT Study Guide, then go buy the Official SAT Study Guide Solutions Manual.
