5.0 out of 5 stars
Entertaining and informative!
I would give this book more than five stars, if that were possible. Unlike many other test-prep books, it is not aimed only to the at- or below-average audience--anyone can benefit from this book. It offers tips on everything from guessing to concentration to vocabulary memorization. I think this book played a significant role in my receiving 800's on SAT Verbal and...

Too many yucks, not enough worthwhile test taking strategies
I agree my fellow reviewer who descrbes this book as LOL -- the only downside is that I'm worried about the SAT, I'm taking it pretty serious, and some of the authors' smug sophomoric jokes get on my nerves. If I want to laugh, I'll watch South Park. If I want to get into college, I'm going to have to study with something better than this.

I would give this book more than five stars, if that were possible. Unlike many other test-prep books, it is not aimed only to the at- or below-average audience--anyone can benefit from this book. It offers tips on everything from guessing to concentration to vocabulary memorization. I think this book played a significant role in my receiving 800's on SAT Verbal and SAT II Writing, as well as an attractive score on SAT Math. I was afraid that I would be doomed to receiving the scores that my PSAT predicted for me--not so! This book is highly recommended, whether your SAT goal is 1000 or 1600.

Best written, funniest test prep book available,

This review is from: Up Your Score: The Underground Guide to the Sat (Paperback)
This book is LOL funny. Not only will you be thoroughly entertained, but the tips you learn will guarantee you a higher score. So much better (and cheaper) than the majority of the test prep guides, and this book is one students will actually use. A combination of Saturday Night Live (the old one) and Monty Python humor
