Would you spend 180 bucks for all the prep you need in a handheld computer? It looks promising but I've heard over and over that nothing but good old fashion practice tests and lots of them will get you a high score.</p>
<p>that is pretty cool, but man its not worth that much money. What if you lose it. I say just get a bunch of prep books from different makers and use em all</p>
<p>Okay, sounds like a good idea, but I'm getting a headache trying to search for reliable SAT prep books online and on collegeconfidential.com because there are so many, and you have to sort through all the "fluff" and see what will give you hardcore practice.
If anyone knows any books that are good for practice with the new SAT and give a whole lot of practice questions, please please pretty please list them.</p>
<p>Simple. The Blue Book. Do it all and you're set.</p>
<p>I know but there are only 8 practice tests. I seriously need a whole lot of practice tests. There's McGraw-Hills and then all the usual stuff like Barron's, Princeton Review, Kaplan..but I heard these prep books weren't good. I'm not really looking for strategies either, just lots of questions because I still have quite a bit of time until I take the actual test.</p>
<p>sarorah, use the 10 old SAT's also. While the New SAT is slightly different, that book is more accurate than any prep book you will find.</p>
<p>If you need more than 18 practice tests, I'll see if I can think of anything else.</p>
<p>So you really think that will help? I suppose I should take those tests and forget about the analogy & QC section. I was looking into PR's test prep books (11 practice tests), but I heard there were a lot of errors. And I don't think I'm very confident so I probably couldn't bring myself to distinguish the errors from the real answer and it probably would confuse me. Plus I read that it may be too simple, and not very comparable to the actual test. And I also read RocketReview was mediocre, even that guy xiggi doesn't advocate it. Does anyone have opinion's on Gruber's Complete Preparation for the New SAT, 10th Edition? And do you think there would be copies of the old SATs that would have been administered by oh say 2006?</p>
<p>But its so shiny! The silver-black combination truly portrays my apathy towards the SAT.</p>
<p>I know, seriously, sorting through all of these stupid test prep books is making the thing more and more appealing. Everything at a push of a button. Vocab, math drills, sentence completion, practice tests..you name it. You can take it anywhere and learn something new instead of waiting to come home to study. It even has a built in calculator and test timer.</p>
<p>sarorah, xiggi is a huge advocate of grammatix. i have heard many great things about rocket review, but they may or may not work for you.</p>
<p>Sarorah - it is important to remember that the "practice tests" in Barron's, Princeton Review, Kaplan etc are NOT real SAT's. At the moment your best sources of practice tests are the College Board's "Blue Book" which contains 8 practice tests AND the official practice test that should be in your high school's guidance office AND THIS IS IMPORTANT the just released MARCH 2005 SAT. Students who took the March SAT had the option of buying this test. Find a student who has a copy of this test and make your own photo-copy. It is an extremely valuable practice test!!!</p>
