<p>Hey everyone!</p>
<p>Yesterday, I went to a library and checked out an SAT preparation book called "Up Your Score: The Underground Guide to the SAT." </p>
<p>My god...was it helpful or what?</p>
<p>I would totally recommend this book.
I struggled the most in Critical Reading. I would score around 600 or so.<br>
I followed the tips in this book and took notes on the methods you had to apply to different types of questions.
I practiced those methods on a couple reading sections today, just 3 of them from the Princeton Review 11 Practice Tests. My score, which would normally be around 590-610, shot up instantly to a 680-720.<br>
I am literally in tears of joy, because the SAT was one of the only barricades for me to get into college (in my opinion).</p>
<p>Hence, I'd totally recommend this book. I took an SAT on June 1st of this year, and I plan to take another one on October 5th. Unlike before, I feel very confident and am actually looking forward to this (call me a geek, if you will :) )</p>
<p>But I had one more question...
Where does Princeton Review get their practice tests from? Are they actually SAT questions issued on previous tests, or do they caliber them to a similar level or difficulty?</p>
<p>Thanks :)
I hope everyone finds my post helpful!</p>
