<p>I have the Collegeboard Blue Book, and I barely manage to get a few math questions right in each section. I like the the Blue Book, but I don't feel that I will learn the math required for the SAT. Is there a better book that teaches one how to solve the level of math required to do well on the SAT?</p>

<p>grubers .</p>

<p>+1 for grubers</p>
<p>grubers is good for math since it covers almost all of the math stuff, but it's wayyyyy too long imo it's like 150+ pages on just basic math concepts</p>
<p>Just go through a lot of practice problems, as the problems are pretty predictable year to year. You could also try finding problems for the Math level II subject test in an attempt to over-prepare (there are a lot of similarities in problem type).</p>
<p>I wish I could be of more help but I just get math and got an 800 on both math and math II without any studying, so I don't know what books are good to buy. Also, the most important thing you can do is to really believe you can do well, and go into the test feeling confident. Hope this helps a little.</p>
<p>The Gruber's book sounds good, but I don't want to read 150 pages on something that can be explained in one page. I want the book to be informative while remaining at a decent length, but not so long that it becomes mind boggling. Any other suggestions?</p>
<p>Umm...do your math homework? :D</p>
<p>I do my math homework, and I do the best I can, but I feel it's not enough. Oh well, I shouldn't be expecting anything great on my first SAT. I haven't even taken the PSAT....</p>
<p>I don't think Gruber's is too much. Why would you not want mastery of the math concepts on the SAT?</p>
<p>i agree with jakeus, if you want a good math score, you have to work at it. you won't get the concepts down in a page. you have to do a ton of practice sets.</p>
<p>^^ Agree I think Unoriginal is looking for shortcuts and an easy way out.</p>
<p>He can forget about improving his Math.</p>
