5.0 out of 5 stars
Overprep but smart and very helpful,
This review is from: 15 Realistic Tests for the SAT Math Level 2 Subject Test Extended and Revised 3rd Edition (Paperback)
This book makes you feel as if you are about to have a heart attack while doing the tests. But on the test day you feel very confident when you see the real questions and you start to ask yourself, "Hey, will the hard questions ever show up?" Your scores and timing should not discourage you while doing the tests in this book (my highest score was 680 but I still managed to get my 800). Here is a hint, the easy questions in this book are the standard ones you will be seeing in the real test. There will be only two - three questions similar to the ones in this book. Nevertheless, my advice is to go over all questions and their solutions. And, the way this book overpreps you is better than other's, especially the Barron's one.

Want a high score? You still might not want this book,

This review is from: 15 Realistic Tests for the SAT Math Level 2 Subject Test Extended and Revised 3rd Edition (Paperback)
The fact that this book contains a formidable 15 exams, dwarfing its competitors in the sheer number of tests offered, alone makes this book a valuable purchase for somebody seeking a VERY high score on the Math IIC. If your target score is not above a 750, this is not the book for you. I am a very good math student and could not finish a single exam, and my highest score was a 700 flat. I highly recommend buying this book in tandem with Kaplan Math IIC. Kaplan is notoriously easier than Barrons or Princeton (neither of which are as hard as this). Do as many Meylani tests as you can, then with 5 days before the exam, do a few Kaplan exams to get your confidence up, as Kaplan is largely accurate to the actual exam. Using the Meylani was very helpful to me, and made the actual exam seem significantly easier than it would have been otherwise.

This review is from: 15 Realistic Tests for the SAT Math Level 2 Subject Test Extended and Revised 3rd Edition (Paperback)
"Realistic" isn't the right word the describe the tests though they prepare you very well for the actual exam and fifteen practice exams are more than enough; I didn't even do half of them. So, in a way, I got more than what I wanted (which is a good thing!). The exam questions from this book are much more difficult than the actual exam even though the types of questions are very similar. Because of their difficulty, those exams are very good for preparing you for the actual exam. Don't expect to finish all the questions on one exam within the time limit, and don't expect to even do some of the questions (some of them are too difficult and just unnecessary). However, after doing these practices tests, you will definitely improve your timing and precalculus problem solving skills. Your score on these sample tests will most likely be significantly lower than your actual score (around a hundred point difference). I highly recommend this book if you are planning to score higher than 700 on the test. Otherwise, you are probably better off getting a less challenging book.
