Will this SAT book help me.?

Question

I bought this collegeboard SAT guide for me but I'm not sure if this will really help me get a better score for the tests that I will take..If not is there another book that can really help me?

Answer 1

I would agree that the collegeboard book will be probably be your best, most cost-efficient study guide.

Paying for a prep class may give you better results depending on how you best learn, but the book will point out all the little tricks, strategies and problem solving methods that the SAT is designed to test.

When reading the book, I really recommend doing the practice problems as you go, because the real SAT questions usually parallel the structure of the study questions. Learning how to solve a certain kind of question ahead of time will give you a huge advantage on the actual exam.

Most importantly, however, ask yourself when reading any SAT problem, "What did the people who wrote this question want to test?" If you can answer that, you can almost always figure out a way to solve the problem.

I used Collegeboard materials to study for the SATs and scored a 2360/2400

Answer 2

Answer 3

College Board would probably be the best, since they created and administered the SAT's. Princeton would be also good, too. I take classes, and they really help. Most students who get high scores usually take SAT classes. They are really useful. I used to get pitiful 1400/2400's, but they taught me the methods and tricks. Now, I'm getting 2200/2400's. :)

It's more hands-on then reading a book. Usually, it's easier to soak in information and strategies by being taught.
