Best Sat books for a 700+ point increase?

Test Preparation SAT Preparation
1

<p>Ok. I have the online course (same as blue book right?) from college board already and direct hits.</p>

<p>I took the SAT a while ago and i didn't do so Hot. So I'm looking to get atleast a 2150 on it.
My ideal score is 2200-2300 plus.</p>

<p>I need to raise about atleast 700+ points.</p>

<p>I have 7 months to prepare and I am extremely dedicated. I believe in myself and I believe I can do this.</p>

<p>I need a book that will refresh but also teach me the material at the same time (Learning disability) </p>

<p>What would be better?
Barrons or Kaplan or Princeton review or Gruber?</p>

<p>This is what I recommend:</p>

<p>Math- Grubers (I boosted from 690 to 800’s on BB Practice)
CR- Grammatrix or Rocket Review, they have plenty of strategies, I picked the one that was best for me. (500’s to mid 700’s)
Writing- Sparknotes was enough for me (mid 600’s to mid 700’s).</p>

<p>I prepared in three months. I also had the BB and the Online Course on hand.</p>

<p>Alright!</p>

<p>And is the book “The elements of style” good enough to replace grammatix?</p>

<p>General solution: Take practice test after practice test and analyze your mistakes carefully, absorb the insight and thinking methods. it is a long process, but it can be done. </p>

<p>Some particular advice:</p>

<p>For CR, I recommend taking an infinite amount of time for each section before timing yourself. Why test yourself on time when you need to gain the skills first? First gain the reasoning skills, then apply them to the test of time. </p>

<p>Math - Same as CR? I never had trouble with math so im not sure</p>

<p>Writing - Test, review, learn, test again. In one month you can gain 300 pts like I did. </p>

<p>I don’t think all those books are necessary. Just the Collegeboard one</p>

<p>you said: “Math- Grubers (I boosted from 690 to 800’s on BB Practice)”</p>

<p>I didn’t really understand. r u saying that you did the Gruber’s math and then practiced math in the BB and that is how you raised your score?</p>

<p>and BTW, what Gruber’s book did you use…what is it called?</p>
