Accuracy of Practice Tests (Barron's v.s. Blue Book)

<p>Basically, I'm wondering which book contains practice tests that accurately evaluate your performance on the SAT. On the Barron's test I scored a 1920, while on the Blue Book's test I scored a 2050. The main reason for the difference in scores was the math section (670 on Barron's, 780 on the Blue Book). Then again, I heard that barron's math is harder than the real thing. I'm not sure which score is more accurate. Any answers would be appreciated.</p>

<p>The blue book will always be more accurate - it’s an actual test made by College Board</p>

<p>In the 2nd edition blue book, the first 3 tests were actually administered (that’s why they have an real scoring curve), while tests 4-10 were assembled using questions from real SATs given under the old testing format. Since tests 4-10 aren’t actual tests, they will only give you score ranges, but if you take the medians of those ranges you can estimate your score pretty accurately.</p>

<p>Barron’s math is harder, so your real score is probably around the 780 you got in the blue book.</p>

<p>The cr is complete bs. i average 750+ in the real thing but when I’m doing Barron’s i mess up really hard. When I’m not completely focused I get like 7 wrong in just one section.</p>

<p>BB is more accurate. Trust me. Any other prep books cannot be as accurate as the BB.</p>
