Bought this for the mystery tutor site, glad I did. (2008-11-17)
Customer Review : 5
I bought this book for my kid because it was recommended on mysterytutor.com, and I have to say I'm glad I did. The questions are different from what he was working on before, which was one of the Barron's books, just like the guy on the mystery tutor site said they would be. It just makes sense to use real questions to get ready for the test, especially when it's an important one.
Some other reviewers have written about how the book doesn't provide solutions, and I agree that that's a problem, but if you go to the mystery tutor's forums you can get all of those solutions for free, so that way you can still use this book of real questions and not have to go with some other company's fake questions, but still have explanations.
The book is full of real practice questions just like it says it is, and it's the only book of practice questions you should be using! Get it and don't think twice.

This book NEVER arrived. It was cancelled the same day, reorder from another vendor and also cancelled. Finally, my daughter's boyfriend found her one, almost too late and they studied together. The Guide was helpful but would have been better if delivered and on time.
No explanations!?? (2008-10-22)
Customer Review : 2
This book comes in handy because it has great tips and sources coming right from the creator of the SAT's and also tells you what to expect on test day. The only problem is that it gives no explanations for the answers.There are explanations on the sample questions only, but there are none on the practice tests(there are eight practice tests). It is so frustrating, especially in the math section, don't just tell me the answer is "B", explain to me WHY it is "B" and HOW to solve the problem. If you want an effective and easy to understand study guide, I recommend "11 Practice tests for the SAT's and PSAT's" by the princeton review. That one actually explains the answers for every single question(both math and English) in the book. You can buy the college board's if you want great tips but don't rely on it for your practice tests because its not going to help.
Great Book! (2008-10-13)
Customer Review : 4
well..
Firstly,it is a great book with useful deals for different part of SAT. I think this book is like Baron's "How to prepare for SAT",but it has more details and is from the test maker.
Secondly,as a official guide to SAT for people all around the world,it introduce SAT in a very detailed way,including some test skill.(though..just few..)
As a official guide,it can just present some common skills and reference. It cannot be a top reference book but a necessary book for SAT.
Thanks collegeboard for presenting such a great book for us.
