Decent Study Guide August 21, 2010

My main problem with this book is that it is from the test-maker. At first, I thought that would be a good reason to buy it. When I received it, I realized that was not so. I was expecting tips on how to recognize the tricks used and how to avoid them. After reading through the first few chapters, I was thoroughly disappointed. Then I realized, this book is published by the test maker. Why would the writers of the test want to provide a resource that teaches you their tricks and traps? The tips recommended in this guide are general test taking tips that you could find in any test prep book. I did not receive any enlightening information from them. The practice SATs are the component that pushed my rating up to a four. The practice tests are great for preparation, because they are exactly like the real thing. If you work through a few of these, you will know exactly what to expect come test day. Overall, I recommend this for the practice tests. Do not buy this if you are looking for guidance on avoiding test-maker traps. I would look elsewhere.
Buy it here! July 29, 2010

I love this book. I love the price. The GREAT thing is that if you go to Border's or B&N you get a sheet with all the errata that you have to worry about. My copies from Amazon already had the errate fixed! My only criticism is that - at times - I could have used some of the detailed explanations that you find in some of the other SAT prep books. The math questions are excellent.

This book is well-known for its real tests. Taking the practice tests in this "blue book" certainly familiarize yourself with the genuine SAT style from the official test-maker. Before considering other prep books, buy this first

This Book Is Good But Needs A Companion!! July 15, 2010

This book is fantastic as long as it is accompanied by the right companion book. "The Offical SAT Study Guide" provides great testing material exactly like the real tests since the College Board produces the exams and this book. So it is the book to get for practice exams. The shortcoming is the lack of question explanations. Even explanations posted on-line are not very clear or useful, as my daughter an SAT test taker tells me. This dilemma is simply solved by ordering the book "STEP-BY-STEP SAT with Official SAT Study Guide Solutions" (ISBN 978-0-557-46336-7) by Dr. Ronald Fikar. This book provides detailed solutions to the College Board book, and it also has vocabulary and math formulas, which my daughter found extremely valuable. So we bought both of these books, and my daughter did well on the SAT exam. That made me appreciative enough to write reviews for both of these books!
