<p>is this book outdated?</p>
<p>is the new test completely different?</p>
<p>Oh, no. The book is totally good. Some tests in the Blue Book has been imported from the 10 Real SAT. Sometimes I even find it more useful than the current Blue cover version.</p>
<p>it is outdated, as it contains the analogy section of the Verbal (not CR), has a different format/timing, those math comparisons and doesn't include parts of precalculus that are now tested.</p>
<p>i wouldn't recommend using it in full practice lengths b/c of these differences,
but it was still helpful in prepping question by question.</p>
<p>i just ignored all the analogy questions and used it in short 10 min intervals for reading passages and whatever math questions that looked difficult upon first glance</p>
<p>Oh that analogy sometimes become useful, since I learn vocab from it as well. The Math section is absolutely fine, just work out, combine with the Blue anyone is smart shall get a combo.</p>
<p>i heard that the red book's CR was a bit harder than the blue book's, is that true?</p>
<p>since they had analogies and more topics, the CR usually had more questions and fewer passages, so if you get stuck on one passage, it seems harder.</p>
<p>i thought the more questions per topic rly made the CR practice helpful, since it tests the many possibilies for each type of passage</p>

<p>Regard to the Math section, sometimes, yes.
For the passage I recognise 3 of them have been imported to the blue book.</p>
<p>The book isn't outdated, I drilled through all the passages and SC in there and was able to bump up my CR 100 points. By the time I had completed all those passages, I was confident in choosing the proper answers to the passage questions (I especially the iffy ones). You start to screen out which ones are herrings and which ones are legit.</p>
