<p>well i recently started to ACTUALLY study for the SAT seeing as its only 2 months away, and ive been grinding. Im one of those people who start grinding last minute, and i gotta say its working. Ive went from a 550 on math practice tests to a 670, but im curious. Are Kaplan books reliable?</p>
<p>I currently have the Official SAT, Kaplan and McGraw-Hill, i know the official one is obviously REAL, but how about Kaplan? what would you rate it in accuracy to the official one?</p>
<p>i've found kaplan in general to be pretty unreliable. then i did the practice tests, i found a good number of kaplan's solutions to be utterly wrong. i even consulted teachers on those problems, and they said that kaplan was wrong.</p>
<p>official SAT is good. def.</p>
<p>mcgraw-hill drove me nuts. their practice tests are NOTHING like the actual thing. and a lot of the strategies they offer are silly and make your score even worse.</p>
<p>I'll keep it short:</p>
<p>NO!!!</p>
<p>Ahahahahaha. No. Kaplan sucks. Aaaand they didn't hire me as a tutor. <em>Frowny face!</em></p>
<p>No! Get the collegeboard one. They're real tests..and there's good review stuff, if you haven't covered some stuff in math for example.</p>
