<p>Has anyone else utilized this prep book? Any thoughts on the quality of the content in the book?</p>
<p>Yes, I have and it helped a lot. The reading and english section are not very great, but good. This books REALLY helped me on mathematics and a very good amount on science.</p>
<p>Ok, great! 
Did you perhaps use any other materials concurrently?</p>
<p>that’s good. i just bought it like 2 hours ago</p>
<p>Basically what Nuclear said, I’d grab PR for English and Reading instead.</p>
<p>I liked Barrons for math and science, too.</p>
<p>Is barrons the best prep book?</p>
<p>^Apprently so, for the math and science portions.
I’ve used Kaplan for the Reading & English, but I felt that the questions were expceptionally easy. Try Princeton Review, maybe?</p>
<p>I will try princeton review, I thought there was a free SAT test avialable.</p>
<p>concur: Barrons for math & science, PR for the rest. Google around and you might be able to find old editions of the real test.</p>
<p>It’s decent. However, they put so much fluff in the book (It is really thin to begin with) that the whole book could have been condensed into like 30 pages. (Not including the few practices)</p>
<p>When you say “PR,” which Princeton Review Book are you referring to? Manual, Crash Course, or Cracking the ACT?</p>
<p>Is it me or is the practice Math test in Barron’s 36 harder than usual?</p>
<p>There probably referring to cracking the ACT by PR. Crash course is very good too though</p>
<p>Barrons is always harder than usual. That’s kind of their mantra.
I’ve found that Barrons 36 + PR 1296(?) questions seems to be a winning combination</p>
<p>and if you really want to work on your English- The McGraw Hill tests have so many mistakes that you’ll be confused enough to actually look up how to do it correctly. And then you’ll never forget it ;)</p>
