<p>for those who have actually taken the SAT, could you please advise me on which prep book has the most realistic SAT questions, due to the fact that i am a sophomore and have been admonished on several occasions at the idea of taking the SAT. lol, but im prepping for next year and i need to know which book has the best SAT simulations and which book has the best strategy based material.
i could really use some help :)</p>
<p>thanks in advance !</p>
<p>I thought Princeton Review wasn't too bad. The Blue Book would have the "most realistic SAT questions" though since it is published by the CollegeBoard.</p>
<p>The Princeton Review 11 SATs seems to me as though it is a bit harder than the actual thing, which helps. I used only Sparknotes and Princeton Review (not the Blue Book), which may have been a mistake - but I'll never know for sure. </p>
<p>Using Princeton Review, my practice test scores were consistently around:
750 CR
780 W
710 M</p>
<p>On March 1st, I scored
740 CR
750 W
800 M</p>
<p>Blue Book = Real Tests</p>
<p>thanks
lol i'll look into getting both.</p>
<p>Definitely the Blue Book will have the more realistic tests. But, Princeton Review has the better test taking strategies and their tests are pretty similar to the actual thing as well.</p>
<p>^Totally right</p>
<p>Princeton Review: good strategies
Blue Book: good questions</p>
<p>Totally agree with the last two posts. I would get both.</p>
<p>have a friend that got 2390 on march sat with PR
he said that he thought PR was slightly harder</p>
