<p>Barron's makes me a little nervous. Is it harder than the actual math problems on the real SAT? I heard that most people get much higher scores on the real SAT math sections than they do on the Barron's practice tests.</p>
<p>it's definitely harder,i got a 590 on barron's but a 700 on the practice test from the Blue book</p>
<p>which barron book are you talking about</p>
<p>barron's how to prepare for the SAT .that orange book~~~~</p>
<p>Yup, the orange one.</p>
<p>how is that book? comprehensive compared to PR cracking?</p>
<p>it seems like a big book. how are the other sections?</p>
<p>barron's how to prepare the sat is hard compare to the PR cracking,especially the Critical reading,so that i suggest that u should go for barron after u finish the "easier" book,like PR.and i think in general PR cracking 's strategy is better,but not for math,i think the math section from barron is more comprehensive.</p>
<p>yea, the barron's one is really difficult...i missed 2 on the actual SAT math section when i took it and i made 800s on my other practice tests, dont be discouraged if you dont do well with barron's...i think its a bit too hard, but if you're looking for a challenge i guess...</p>

How well did you do on the Barron's practice tests, and how harder would you say the questions are compared to the actual SAT?</p>
<p>I have Barron's Math Workbook for the New SAT, is this the same book that you guys are talking about?</p>
<p>I used Barron's and got an 800 on my PSAT Math. Indeed, the Barron's workbooks are extremely hard. I would miss like 4 or 5 on the practice questions.</p>
