Test Preparation SAT Preparation
1

<p>I just took my January SAT, and although I do not have my score back, I feel as if I can improve whatever it turns out to be.</p>

<p>I currently own the Princeton Review: Cracking the SAT(which i didn't like too much) and the College Board Blue Book (which i will use for practice tests)</p>

<p>I think i need to improve my vocabulary because I definitely struggled on the sentence completions, so i just placed an order for the Direct Hits Volumes. Taking the SAT, I find CR to be the hardest, the essay behind it i guess, then math isn't too bad and the writing MC seems very easy</p>

<p>I've read recommendations for books like..Rocket Review, Maximum Sat, Barrons, Grubers...
If I was to just pick one/two books..which would you recommend???</p>

<p>thanks!</p>

<p>whatever you do, do not get the kaplan book- many of the practice questions are impossible, unclear, or have the wrong answers listed in the back of the book. unless the book has improved since last year...</p>

<p>RR for writing, Gruber's for math, and Maximum is very good too, imo. I'd stay away from barron's. It really depends on your strengths, which only you can assess.</p>

<p>ummm i was just looking at the maximum sat...and on google, it seems as if i can "preview" the book but it gives me every page of it haha</p>

<p>oh wait nvm..it only previews 216 pages..out of about 350 i think</p>
