Which prep book should I buy?

Test Preparation SAT Preparation

<p>I bought Kaplan today, and was wondering if that is a good idea.
If not, what should I have gotten instead?</p>

<p>I always recommend not preparing for the SAT. It completely defeats the purpose IMO.</p>

<p>Do you have the official study guide? because that book is a must. I suggest buying Rocket Review or a Barron's book to learn and study tactics/grammar/math and to practice, and then using the official practice tests to see where you stand (and for more practice).</p>

4

<p>There is a search button. Search for "The ultimate for sat prep books"</p>

<p>^Yeah, I'm tired of newbs starting prep book threads without looking around.</p>

<p>Best books I got were Cracking the ACT for strategy, then 11 Practice Tests and the College Board book of tests.</p>

<p>EWWW</p>

<p>I bought Cracking the ACT after I ran out of tests, and I regretted not returning it immensly. The lines in the grammar section were BADLY misprinted</p>

<p>Anyone who recommends PR books should be considered a troll on this board.</p>
