New SAT Guide

I tutor the SAT and was in a hurry to get up-to-date on this subject.This is a pretty thick book! It goes through each part of the test, teaching how to improve your strategies. Instead of the explanations of the scores (as on most SAT books) the more involved explanations can be looked up online. This means, the book if full of short lessons and short quizzes to help you learn step-by-step.I like that I can have my students order mini-diagnostics, a 3-pack of PSAT tests and individual full tests. Often, students feel pretty overwhelmed by a big book like this, so the smaller versions are better for those students. This is a great book to take a bit at a time and go through all you need to know. Even if you were NOT going to take the test, you will vastly increase your understanding of basic subjects.

I've been teaching SAT classes for 3 years, and this book is a very comprehensive review of all the content on the new exam. Some of the chapters cover extremely basic concepts, but this can be helpful for students who are struggling in any of the subject areas. There are plenty of practice questions, a practice test after each subject area (math, reading, writing) and two full-length practice tests included. There are also five new essay prompts.Some of the information is a little outdated, as College Board has made some changes to the exam since the publication date, and there are a few typographical mistakes. However, this is rectified in the erratum that is available for download from the Ivy Global site, along with a wealth of other resources for teachers and students. Highly recommended!

I've been a test prep instructor for many years. I've had this book for about 2 months now. It will definitely allow my students to get ahead of the game. People talk about using the official book for prepping but with years of experience in teaching thousands of students in test prepevery year, it's not always the best way to go. If you think about it, people who make the test are not going tell you ways tobeat the test. There are enough strategies that I found very helpful in this book for the New SAT. I also looked at the Collegboard's guidelines for the new test and this book meticulously follows that guideline.

SAT Prep book was purchased new, so I’m a little bit confused as to why we received a damaged book. Product was packaged in a box so damage didn’t occurred during shipping. When purchasing anything new you expect the items to arrive looking new with no physical damages to its general appearance.

This is the first book out for this new test. It has practice tests as well as tutorials on the material and the changes in this test as compared with the current SAT. Excellent book.

This is a VERY detailed book and prepares you for the Reading Comprehension, Mathematics, and even the Essay portion. It gives you TWO practice tests which is IMMENSELY helpful.

This is a useful resource to help gauge how to prepare students for the new test. The guide from the College Board won't come out until June.
