<p>What are the best books out there for preparing for the SAT 1?</p>
<p>Barrons is usually good in all SAT/SAT2 prep, but they do then to overprepare you.
Princeton Review and Kaplan are a bit on the easy side, but their Math/Verbal workbooks are good.</p>
<p>The College Board usually has the "10 Realy SATs" which is a book of ten actual tests as well as some strategies for taking the test. I don't think they have this any more because of the whole transition to the new sat and all, I think now it's called "the Official SAT study guide" and the tests are obviously ones that have not previousy been used, but still it's quite helpful. taking a lot of practice tests are the best way to prepare and get better acquainted with the test.</p>
<p>Oh duh! I forgot to mention 10 Reals, which is definitely the best book for preparing. But, if you're taking the new SAT, which to me seems like you are, they don't have a book like that out yet...although some sections are similar so you can still do 10 reals.</p>
<p>They DO have something similar for the new SAT. </p>
<p>It's called The Official SAT Study Guide: For the New SAT.</p>
