<p>I studied from the red book (I think that’s the Real ACT book, or something like that) and I thought that it prepared me well. However, I didn’t study from any other books so I can’t speak to how it compares to the others.</p>

<p>The Real ACT Prep Guide is a must-own since it contains retired tests along with explanations for each answer, so get that first. Princeton Review does a very good job with its strategies and presents the material in a humorous way. Kaplan is also pretty solid. Sorry I can’t comment on SparkNotes.</p>

<p>ok thank you. is it a bad idea to only take the act and not the sat also</p>

<p>The Real ACT Prep Guide (aka the Red Book) and Princeton Review are the two best ACT prep books, I think.</p>

<p>Barron’s is also pretty good (it’s hard as nails, but it’ll make the real test seem easier).</p>

<p>Princeton Review - English (best book)
Math (Good)
McGraw Hills - a bit easier, but practice non the less. </p>

<p>Red Book - Essential for everything, esp. Reading & science which require practice and repetition more than anything. </p>

<p>I tried the PR 1296 Questions, and the book was pretty good. It doesn’t replace the red book though.</p>

8

<p>Sparknotes is horrible. The questions are sometimes impossible to solve and aren’t clear.</p>

<p>i used only the red book, and got a great score.</p>
