NLP: The New Technology of Achievement

NLP Comprehensive

Harper Paperbacks, 1996

One of the best books on NLP that includes A LOT of useful exercises.
This book is great in that it not only explains some of the basics of NLP but it also includes 43 different exercises to do while you are reading the book. Most of these exercises can be done quickly and have been, for me, generally quite effective. These exercises are ...

Cracking the SAT Physics Subject Test, 2007-2008 Edition (College Test Prep)

Princeton Review

Princeton Review, 2007

Great for the SAT's Physics
I bought two books for my Physics SAT: Barron's and this. I was extremely disappointed with Barron's Physics. Compared to this, it was just... pointless. This book covers every major topic covered on the SAT Physics in just the right amount. Not too extensive, but ...

Best one you can have for practice
I totally disagree with everyone here. This is the one I used for SAT math level 2, and I got 800 on the test. I have to say that if I had not used this book, I would have only gotten about 700 or even lower on the test. What helped me to bring up my score is this ...

The Book That Gives Hope
