CR Workbooks: Barron vs. Kaplan?

<p>For a critical reading workbook, with a good vocabulary list (not required but preferred), which would you recommend? Barron's or Kaplan's? Or another SAT Prep company? Also, what do you recommend for improvement on just the essay? I've heard the 3 minutes a day series sucks...</p>

<p>Barron</p>

<p>thats what other people told me to buy</p>

<p>i havn't got the book yet, </p>

<p>but i heard that Barron is known for its overpreparation, Kaplan is like tooo easy. </p>

<p>if you want to get a very accurate one, you may need to but sth published by CB, eg. on-line course, blue book, 10 real SAT tests</p>

<p>I hate Kaplan. So go for Barron's. I'm going to get the same workbook.</p>

<p>Otherwise, I think Princeton Review is pretty good too. But I don't know if they have a specific CR workbook.</p>
