Section in all or all book, then the next book?

<p>Ok...what should I do?</p>

<p>I'm prepping for the Oct' 06' SAT I. I'm using 3 different books (McGraw, BlueBook, and RocketReview). I'm going through McGraw just now section by section (section meaning subject, i.e. Writing Section). Do you recommend I go from all the book's sections about Writing all at once, or finish the book, and then finish the next, and then the next?</p>

<p>Hey -- those books were exactly what I used for the June SAT! (Though I never finished McGraw because I ran out of time).</p>

<p>If you try to do all the Writing sections at one time, it might get pretty tedious. I tried that method at first for CR and quickly gave up because it was too boring reading passages and inferring stuff over and over again.</p>

<p>At the end I shifted to finishing Rocket Review first (it's an easy read) and then starting on McGraw.</p>

<p>I never used the suggestions in the Blue Book because a lot of it you should know already intuitively (even Adam Robinson, the author of Rocket Review, points out in his book that the Blue Book's suggestions are pointless). What I did instead was I'd set aside one practice SAT in the blue book as a "drill practice SAT" -- meaning, I'd do a couple of Writing sections in a prep book, then I'll go over to the Blue Book and choose a writing section on the "drill SAT" and work on it, focusing solely on that section. After the time is up, I'll check the answers immediately and study what I did wrong. After I went though the entire prep book, I then take a full length SAT from the Blue Book.</p>

<p>Good luck! I still have yet to see whether my method works when the June SAT scores come in...</p>

<p>so you read the book, then on to the next?</p>

<p>Oasis so what your saying is that you read one prep books section on that subject, then took a drill test on that section and so on??</p>

<p>Yeah.</p>

<p>Like for example I'll read 2 sections from RR's Writing, and then I'll do a Writing Section from the Blue Book....so on.</p>

<p>I'll do this until I exhaust a prep book and start on a new one, using the same method.</p>
