Do not buy this book,
By A Customer
This review is from: CliffsTestPrep SAT I Preparation Guide (Cliffs Test Preparation Series) (Paperback)
I do not recommend this book. It does not use realistic "SAT like" questions. It is full of ambiguities. While actual SAT questions are also commonly quite ambiguous, the Cliffs book seems to misunderstand the purpose of putting ambiguities into questions. In the real SAT, the ambiguities are offered in order to distinguish one answer as clearly the 'most correct.' The Cliffs questions are cheap imitations of the ETS questions. While Cliffs maintains the ambiguity of real SAT questions, they fail to establish a clear unarguably correct answer. Questions on the SAT, on the other hand, are much more 'self-defensive,' in the sense that they have exactly one correct answer, which cannot be argued easily. Cliffs misinterprets the ambiguity in SAT questions. In particular, I do not recommend the CD-ROM of this Cliffs studyware. It is horrible. It is the same material of the book, of course, but the CD does not use the advantages of using a computer. It is practically the same thing as the book. I admit, it is very easy to use. Like microsoft products, it sacrafices content and depth for shallow user-friendliness. In addition, the Cliffs book is severely outdated. If you want to prepare for the SAT, check out Barrons or Princeton Review--do not look to Cliffs for help!
