Barron Test Preparation,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: How to Prepare for the SAT: 2007-2008 (Barron's How to Prepare for the Sat I (Book Only)) (Paperback)
I have prepared students for the PSAT, SAT, ACT and have used Barron preparation all the way back to the 1980s. I use various other manuals and software, but my students tell me that the Barron is the quality preparation they need. It is more difficult than many of the resources and better enables them to score well. There is abundant testing material, answers well explained, the built-in flash cards, dictionary of vocabulary likely seen on the actual test, and available useer friendly software with imediate feedback. In other words, the Barron has it all. I always know that when my students treat this manual as another text book, completing everything offered, their expectations will be fulfilled. My students tell me they know they have had the material that is more difficult than that of the actualtests which gives them a sense of being well prepared in the testing environment.

Vocab List VERY HELPFuL,
This review is from: How to Prepare for the SAT: 2007-2008 (Barron's How to Prepare for the Sat I (Book Only)) (Paperback)
It has a very extensive vocabulary list with almost every SAT word possible! (I would say about 99% of all words are listed). They also provide sentences with word which helps tremendously in understanding the word in context. I would highly recommend this book if you need to improve your vocabulary.

Funny stuff,
By ElisaQ (CT) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How to Prepare for the SAT: 2007-2008 (Barron's How to Prepare for the Sat I (Book Only)) (Paperback)
This is the first SAT prep book with a sense of humor that I've ever run into. The grammar section is full of silly examples that add life to what is far too often a dry subject, and some of the wrong answers in the multiple choice sections are pretty funny, though you have to pay close attention to notice those.
The verbal sections are great. The book provides clear, specific explanations for each answer. The glossary in the middle of the book also defines EVERY word used in the sentence completion practice tests.
