<p>Are they accurate in predicting how you would actually do on the real test, or are just bogus?</p>

2

<p>It varies from person to person, and varies even moreso because each SAT test will be different. Don't expect it to be a 100% accurate reflection of how will you will do, and don't expect a solid answer just by asking some people online.</p>

<p>My experience:
Blue book tests:
1. CR: 640; M: 630
2. CR: 640; M: 740
3. CR: 640; M: 775
4. M: 700
5. M: 690
6. M: 700</p>

<p>Actual:
CR: 690; M: 770</p>

<p>Oh, thanks. Any more thoughts?</p>

<p>also, is it just me are or the tests in the blue book easier than the tests in the barrons book?</p>

<p>Bump, bump...</p>

<p>I don't know... I just bought the Barron's book two days ago. And I'm currently waiting for it be delivered to me.</p>

<p>I just got Barron's, and I took one of their reading tests.
One of the passages was extremely confusing. I think the blue book is easier (thank goodness).</p>

8

<p>well I don't think you should be looking for easier... because that's not going to best prepare you for the real thing. I haven't bought the blue book yet. How many of you have taken the PSATs?</p>
