The Official SAT Study Guide

This book is the filet mignon of SAT prep, but it has one drawback.

I've tutored the SAT for over two years, and have scored over 2300 twice as an adult. This title is superior to the Kaplan and Princeton Review books, because it is designed by the people who produce the SAT. This simple fact is enough to elevate it head and shoulders above the rest.

When you use the College Board book, you'll be exposed to the perfect difficulty level of questions - not too easy, not too hard. Therefore, you'll learn perfect pacing - not too fast, not too slow. And perfect feedback - not so easy that you think you're a genius, not too hard that you'll think you should go back to seventh grade. And perfect test perception - you'll see just how many "oh my god!!!" questions there are and will handle them accordingly.

The only drawback is the lack of an answer key. The College Board is much more interested in a "fair test" than in helping you out. But if you combine this book with an established, talented SAT tutor, you'll improve your score tremendously with this book.

Buy it.

I got a 1990 on the PSAT, and I thought I could do better, so I bought this book a few months before I took the SAT. I studied a little bit every day, and I think it improved my score significantly. On the SAT, I improved on every section (700 writing, 710 math, 720 critical reading). Being able to take several practice tests from this book made me much more comfortable when taking the actual tests. The only problem was the essay, on which I earned a 7 out of 12 ("partial mastery") I usually get excellent grades on essays at my high school, and I wasn't sure what went wrong. This book doesn't really help much with the essay, but most colleges don't consider it yet anyway.
