<p>I already studied for Princeton Review and McGraw hill..
So?
Should I get it!??!?
Thanks ;)</p>
<p>Theres like 2 practice tests I think but most of the other info in the book doesn’t help that much if you looked at some prep books. Its not really worth the 30 dollars, in my opinion.</p>
<p>I bought the Princeton Review, studied it, and when it came to the SSAT I found it to be very useless</p>
<p>If you want more practice taking the tests–yes. If you’re looking for study hints–no. </p>
<p>My son did find the Princeton helpful, and said that one or two of the vocab. words he studied were on the test (and one or two was what he was what he needed). Just don’t want you to think that time was wasted based on loubear’s comment–ymmv.</p>
<p>Maybe.</p>
<p>I did the same as the person above. I got the Princeton Review and studied it, the SSAT book was nothing new. It’s much less comprehensive. It had a few math concepts but not many explanations. It wasn’t thorough at all. However, the questions seemed harder for me and they were probably more realistic than the Princeton Review book. It may just be me but of the practice problems they were more difficult. </p>
<p>So, it’s really up to you. Just know that it’s not really helpful for vocab or math… or reading, for that matter.</p>
<p>well… too late to get it anyway!</p>
<p>@Sandlun,
I think that the official SSAT study guide is useful because the practice tests in it are the most like the real test. Some practice tests in some test prep books weren’t realistic at all. (Specifically Baron’s)</p>
<p>I think that the official study guide is useful because it has practice tests that are very similar to the real test, and I think that’s the big reason to purchase it.</p>
<p>I also just ordered it today :)</p>
