Barron's How to Prepare for the SAT is your blueprint for test success! This 851-page book includes a diagnostic test, practice tests, questions answered and explained, and an in-depth review of all test subjects. It's basically like having your own private tutor or personal instructor to help you achieve a better test score! Everything from instructions for the night before the test to perforated high-frequency vocabulary flash cards is included in this comprehensive guide. Word lists, basic word parts, math strategies and tactics, and testing tactics are all in there to build confidence for students.

Part one helps students to get acquainted with the SAT one section at a time. Part two will help students pinpoint their trouble spots. In part three, students learn tactics and strategies and practice critical reading, critical writing, and mathematics skills. Finally, in Part four, students can take six model SAT tests for practice!

Barron's SAT test prep manual reflects the most recent SAT in length, question types, and degree of difficulty. If you want to understand more about the SAT's scoring method, this book is a must-have. It provides comprehensive preparation for college-bound students. The sheer size of this book may overwhelm some students, but no one who purchases and uses this manual will go into the SATs unprepared! For such a great price, every high school student should own a copy of this book!
