Barrons SAT Math Workbook any good?

<p>People say that barrons is much harder than the actual math on the SAT. However I am almost done with all of the lessons in the book and the questions are not hard at all. </p>

<p>I usually miss a few Q's per lesson if any. </p>

<p>Is barrons a good book to practice for the SAT? How well does it translate to the real thing? </p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>I have never used the Barron’s Math workbook.</p>

<p>In general, Barron’s questions don’t tend to be good indicators of the types of questions that will appear on the actual SAT.</p>

<p>Neither are those of Princeton Review, Kaplan, or any other test prep company for that matter.</p>

<p>Stick with the books generally pushed by CCers:</p>

<p>1) SAT Official Study Guide, the famous “Blue Book”
2) Direct Hits, Volumes 1 & 2 (buy online)</p>

<p>I recommend the SAT Official Online Course (through the College Board).</p>

<p>You get 10 more official practice tests, and tons of lessons and practice quizzes.</p>

<p>In short, stick with CB materials. The best way to practice for the real SAT is to practice for the real SAT.</p>
