<p>Hmm, I would just stay away from their book then. It's not that good anyway from what I hear. But on <a href="http://www.sparknotes.com%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.sparknotes.com&lt;/a> they offer free preparation and a free diagnostic test.</p>

<p>But trust me, their book isn't that good...the others mentioned in this thread are a lot better.</p>

12

<p>ok, alright...thanks cliff-hanger, but I have run out of practice questions, I must do whatever I can get....lol</p>

13

<p>Gruber's 4</p>

14

<p>10 REAL SAT's is still a good source for Sentence completitions math passage readings</p>

15

<p>yeah, agree, I have just purchased the 10 real SATs, but its used....anyways, if i buy the new one, i got to wait for 1-3 months.....</p>

</p>

<p>no it doesn't. it only gives practice problems.
however, the answer key for the practice problems goes into detail, which helps quite a bit.</p>

<p>1) PR's Cracking the NEW SAT - 2 [Muh. It could do way better.]
4) The blue book - 5 (+) [Really. Straight from the source itself; it doesn't get any better.]
5) Kaplan NEW SAT - 3 [It's Kaplan - it's not going to be bad; they've been in the industry pretty long. But not as good as I'd expected.]
7) Sparknotes NEW SAT - 2 [God, the questions are off! And their descriptions of the essay are crap. However, the review sections proved something of a redeeming point - at once in depth and concise.]</p>
