<p>Gruber's Math Workbook </p>
<p>Gruber's SAT 2400</p>
<p>Gruber's SAT Guide 2011</p>
<p>I know the answer should be obvious, but, in previous threads, the answer varies.
I am looking for math strategies, not practice tests.</p>
<p>Depends, whats your score?</p>
<p>I went with the Gruber’s SAT guide 2011 because it contains very good grammar tips and lessons as well as that extremely helpful word list…</p>
<p>My son hasn’t taken the SAT’s yet. We already have the 2011 book. Just wasn’t sure if that was THE Gruber’s Math everyone talks about.</p>
<p>bumping…</p>
<p>I hated Gruber. It is trash.
Gruber and McGrawhill are the worst.</p>
<p>Gruber’s good for math only. I’d recommend TPR and Barron’s 2400. If you must buy Gruber’s, but the math workbook.</p>
<p>I don’t recommend Gruber to anyone who already knows the material. If your son has ever taken a practice test, a 650+ would definitely mean Gruber would be absolutely useless. I think it’s better towards people with a very poor starting score, but for me at least, it really didn’t help.</p>

<p>What do you recommend to someone, who’s scoring ~700 in the SAT math? (I don’t think I have a “concept” problem.) Just a time problem, which directly leads to “low accuracy”.</p>
<p>^
Barron’s 2400 is good for students who are scoring 700+
GRUBER’S (workbook) is good to get from 400 to 550+</p>
<p>I recommend practice. Just do more sections. 650-800 is generally reckless mistakes and timing. With each mistake just remember to teach yourself how to avoid that exact mistake and future similar mistakes. For example, I messed up once because I didn’t read the word problem carefully enough: Future - ALWAYS REREAD THE WORD PROBLEM, not only the question.</p>
<p>I got 800 a couple times, not consistent though. Starting was 700.</p>
<p>Don’t know about Barron’s 2400. It’s not like we don’t know how to solve the problem right? Just stupid (like adding wrong) mistakes. My tip for stupid mistakes: don’t be an idiot. Use a calculator to double check for idiocy.</p>
