Book Reviews of The Official SAT Study Guide

Book Review: The Best and Only Source You Will Need Preparing for the New SAT
Summary: 5 Stars

I purchased a number of other books to prepare for the test, but ultimately found them all pretty worthless. What you need to do is get this book and take the practice tests; in fact, that's all you need to do. The SAT is not about being smart or skilled in the content. The test is simple once you understand it. Doing well is knowing the test, understanding how to manage your time, recognizing your errors, and gaining a general intuition in terms of the ways the test will attempt to trick you or lead you away from the correct answer. There is no better way to learn these things than practicing with questions written by the people who make the real test! By the time you're done, correct answers will leap out at you, and you'll be extremely comfortable on the big day, knowing exactly what to expect. I only took 4 of the practice tests and ended up with an 800 on the Critical Reading, 740 on the Math, and 730 in Writing (that only amounted to 5 questions wrong total out of 170, no questions skipped). No classes, hardly any other practice, just a couple of Sundays set aside.

Summary of The Official SAT Study Guide

In March 2005, the College Board will begin to administer a new SAT?. To help prepare all students for the new SAT and college success(tm), the College Board introduces:
    The Official SAT Study Guide: For the New SAT(tm)
Here's the successor to the College Board's #1 best seller 10 Real SAT?s. This new book is the only one with practice tests created by the test maker according to proprietary new SAT specifications. With the book's 700+ pages and 21 chapters, students:
  • Gain experience by taking 8 practice tests and receiving estimated scores.
  • Raise confidence by reviewing concepts, test-taking approaches, and practice questions.
  • Increase understanding of the new PSAT/NMSQT? and the new SAT. Plus, book buyers receive free online score reports and a discount on The Official SAT Online Course(tm) with auto essay scoring.
Changes to the new SAT include:
  • The name of the current SAT verbal section will be changed to critical reading, analogies will be eliminated and short reading passages will be added to existing long reading passages.

  • A new section called the SAT writing section will be added, which will contain multiple-choice grammar and usage questions and a student- written essay.
  • The SAT math section will be expanded to include topics from third-year college- preparatory math (also known as Algebra II); in addition, quantitative comparisons will be eliminated from this section. The Official SAT Study Guide: For the New SAT is part of the College Board's new SAT Readiness Program(tm) of print, online, and professional development resources.
