Newer SAT vs. Older SAT

<p>I have a copy of Ten Real SAT's from a few years ago. Does anyone know how do the SATs taken in 1995-1998 compare with the SATs now? Are the questions harder or easier? Which sections are harder or easier? Thanks for the help! Because I don't know if I still need to study harder and in other subjects after getting high scores on the older edition of the SAT.</p>

<p>some content areas have been taken out, some put in, and of course the entire writing section... just get a book or two fro the new one</p>

<p>I mean the difficulty mainly-</p>

<p>the difficulty isn't really comparable, seeing as it's different material. and how many people do you think are still reading this SAT forum who took the old SAT 5 years ago?</p>

<p>yeah-thats what i was thinking-but does anyone know how the difficulty compares anyways-or does anyone have both books?</p>

<p>sure, I have an old SAT prep book on my bookshelf from when my older brother took the SAT, but I've never opened it beyond maybe the introduction</p>

<p>just get a new book.</p>

<p>man i wish the old SAT was still here. I like it much better. Passage reading... not my thing</p>

<p>i was good at analogies on the old sat</p>

<p>I would have new SAT if I didnt eff up the writing section. I actually think the grammar pasts kinda fun.</p>

<p>I have both the new Blue Book, and the old 10 Real SATs... They've changed the math since then, so I doubt that'd be useful, but the sentence completions and passage based questions are still valuable. They seem comparable in difficulty to the new blue book. The only problem is, there are analogies in there too, but if you skip those, the time limit they give you is off.</p>

<p>If I study for both Math Subject tests- IC and IIC, should I be able to skip studying for SAT I Math? I mean if I get a good scores for 1C and 2C.</p>

<p>Math IC is a slightly harder version of the math portion of the SAT Reasoning Test. If you do well on Math IC, you don't need to study for the SAT math portion. If you do well on Math IIC, you definitely do not need to study for the SAT math portion. Good luck!</p>

<p>Oh, and you should definitely buy a new studybook.</p>
