How much harder is Barron's?

<p>I just took a Barron's practice test and I hear it's supposed to be much harder than the SAT itself, but by how much? Is there some sort of conversion scale I can use?</p>

2

<p>CR - about the same/slightly easier
Math - WAY HARDER
Writing- about the same</p>

<p>Use the conversion scale in the official SAT practice test booklet.</p>

<p>Thanks, hey</p>

<p>The questions aren't just harder, they're different. Don't use Barron's tests. Don't use any other test than College Board's.</p>

5

<p>Barron's writing is much confusing than the real one based on my personal experience</p>

<p>Ok! is the collegeborad Book Test easier or harder compared to the real test.</p>

9

<p>hiroshima- pretty much the same thing.</p>

10

<p>So, the passage difficulty level, the writing multiple choice and maths are pretty same right?</p>

11

<p>Made by the same people who make the test, so obviously "yes".</p>

12

<p>I personally found OC tests harder than BB, and the real thing (October 2008) about the same as OC tests.</p>

13

<p>wut are the OC tests?</p>

14

<p>oh, nvm...</p>

15

<p>Well, is the Barrons a good review book to study from?</p>

16

<p>I don't know... I got all 800s when i was practicing from BB and my real test scores weren't anywhere near there. Maybe it was just a bad day... :(</p>
