Does not reflect the SAT at all!
I bought this book hoping to get some practice for the math section of the SAT. Turns out that I made a huge mistake. Heres why:
Let me start by acknowleging the good part of the book. It gives you a very detailed explanation of how to do a lot of the math problems. It gives you a diagnostic test, exercises, and retests for each chapter. That is why it deserves at least 1 star.
However, I did not like this book because it had irrelevant parts to it. For example, the book starts off "teaching" you how to do simple arithmetic problems like "1+2" or "3x2". it then progresses into harder topics. There were plenty of mistakes. For example, lets say an answer was 3. A mistake would look like this: A)3 B)1 C)3 D)4 E)5. Also, don't get tricked by the "3 full length practice math tests" that is stated on the cover. They give you 30 minutes to do 25 math problems. Normally, I would finish 25 math problems in the 30 minutes that are alloted. In this book, I finished the 25 problems in 20 minutes! Either I am REALLY REALLY improving or the problems are just too easy! For each test, they devote 1 ENTIRE section to grid ins. They give you 30 minutes to do 10 grid in problems, and 10 only!!! I finished in 10 minutes.
Overall, this book has some editing problems. It does not reflect the SATs at all! I mean, come on, does the SAT actually give you 1 entire section for grid in problems? ... Read more
