How accurate/effective is Sparknotes?

<p>I'm going to get a prep book tomorrow, but I was wondering how accurate Sparknotes was. I'm using it (along with other prep materials) for Math 1 and Math 2 SAT II.</p>

<p>I bought the SAT II Math 1+2 books from collegeboard and i find that sparknotes is a hassle to navigate and there are not enough practice questions. It’s all about practice anyway, and i just stuck to the official book and got a good score</p>

<p>what about their (sparknotes) explanations? are they sufficient?
i have the collegeboard book too, and it’s only practice questions. I need teaching tools.</p>

<p>Going on Sparknotes online, making an account (which didn’t require much) and doing their practice tests for their SAT Math IIC really helped me! They have plenty of tests, although their grading glitches sometimes, but you can review which questions you got wrong and what not anyway.</p>

<p>It’s not too hard like Barron’s. It’s pretty similar to an official Collegeboard one.</p>

<p>jubilee did they do a good job of teaching/refreshing the material??</p>

<p>Eh, I think the online version is more organized with the chapters and “pages.” It has better formatting than the book. </p>

<p>But I never really used these books to specifically learn concepts, maybe review.</p>

<p>I used sparknotes for the SAT reasoning test and scored 2390! I swear!</p>

<p>^ are you kidding me! that’s impressive. I used Sparknotes for SAT Bio and got 720, I never thought of using it as a SAT prep resource, but hey I’ll try anything now that I have 2 weeks left till Nov 5th.</p>
