If you wish to do well on the math SAT II subject tests, I suggest that you do not buy this book. It has several errors in it and does not provide enough review information. The style of the author was hard to follow and the design of the book itself was poor. There are many fine math review books out there and many of them are here on Amazons website. If you don't want to waste your time and money, buy one of them.

I borrowed this book as a last minute attempt to study for my SAT II Math 2C. After taking the practice test, I was panicked, and almost in tears because of my low score. This book stressed things such as vector analysis, trig graphing on a polar graph and geometry, which were not on the test. If the book would have at least explained these topics, it would not be so horrible, but the or attempts were so weak, I consider them totally useless.
Kaplan's book was a little more accurate in terms of reviewing the information, but I would suggest buying a book by the Princeton Review or College Board if you want to study for ANY of the SAT Subject tests.

disliked this book and used other resources to prepare for their SAT IIs (both scoring in the 700s). I cannot get into the particulars except to say they felt that it wasn't too helpful and that it was God-awfully dull.
