<p>I've been getting near perfect scores on blue Book math (averaging one or less wrong a section, total of 3 wrong for test). However I've been bombing all the Princeton review tests.
Is this supposed to be normal?</p>
<p>Also, do the blue book tests get progressively easier?</p>
<p>Blue book tests/Princeton Review should be roughly the same level as the SAT. Don’t think about which practice book you’re taking, think of it as an actual exam or something. Besides, it’s your actual score, not your practice score, that counts.</p>
<p>If you are CONSISTENTLY scoring the same on the blue book practice tests, then you have no need to worry. The types of questions in the blue book are very similar to the types of questions on the real SATs that are administered.</p>
<p>That’s supposed to be good isn’t it? I mean the Blue Book questions are real. Don’t worry much. If you are good at Blue Book then you will do find on the SAT. I don’t know if the Blue Book is easier.</p>
<p>I own both. Princeton Review is MUCH MUCH harder. My brother is an SAT tutor in the boston area and he said it as well. PR is about 3x as difficult. Blue book is REAL SAT’s or released by the same people so very similar. go by your blue book scores 100%</p>
<p>I wouldn’t say PR is “much much harder,” it may be a tiny bit harder but there shouldn’t be much disparity between PR and actual SAT (I own a PR book as well). Wait 'til you see practice AMC/AIME exams vs. the real ones.</p>
<p>This may not help but:</p>
<p>I have PR for ACT. I got a 30 on English, 26 Math, 24 Science</p>
<p>On the actual ACT I got a 35 English, 34 Math, and 33 Science</p>
<p>Yea…</p>
