Your SAT I: Reasoning Test or PSAT score can make the difference! And because of this fact, you can’t afford to take a chance. Prepare with the best!

CliffsTestPrep SAT I/PSAT has been designed by leading experts in the field of test preparation to be the most comprehensive guide that you can realistically complete in a reasonable time. Our approach is direct, precise, compact, easy to use, and thorough. The testing strategies, techniques, and materials have been researched, tested, and evaluated and are being used today in SAT I test preparation programs at many leading colleges and universities. The “Bobrow Approach” used in this guide focuses on six major areas:

  • Ability Tested
  • Basic Skills Necessary
  • Understanding Directions
  • Analysis of Directions
  • Suggested Approaches with Samples
  • Practice-Review-Analyze-Practice

This guide combines introductory analysis sections for each exam with lots of practice — four full-length practice tests (three SAT and one PSAT).

2.0 out of 5 stars Has some good ideas for the SAT but save your money, November 6, 2007
This book contains several useful points about the SAT I essay. Useful exercises to teach you how to generate ideas for essays are on pages 92-94. And an exercise to teach you how to create an opening paragraph is on page 94. I would rate this book with 2.5 stars if I could because it was somewhat useful.
