SAT Prep | Introduction

This online review for the New SAT has all you need to master the New SAT. Best of all, this review harnesses the power of the internet to include full-featured practice tests and drills you can take online.

This online book brings to bear the decades’ worth of wisdom, hard-earned academic credentials, and—perhaps of greater interest to you—the kind of street smarts that comes from years of hands-on experience in preparing students for standardized tests.

Let’s look at what’s inside:

• The entire SAT, from Critical Reading to Writing to Math, is covered within this comprehensive yet concise review. All the best test-taking tips, strategies, and preparation techniques are also provided.

• There are four practice tests to help you pinpoint your strengths and weaknesses—a real confidence booster to get you into the swing of things!

• Our practice exams, painstakingly crafted to depict the very exam administered by ETS (Educational Testing Service), will familiarize you with the SAT’s format and level of difficulty. We take nothing for granted: Each practice-exam answer is thoroughly explained so you won’t be left in the lurch.

• Because a strong vocabulary is bound to pillar your performance on two-thirds of the test, we not only isolate the types of words you’re most likely to find on the SAT, but we also ensure you won’t come up short by providing the most frequently occurring Greek and Latin roots. This way, even if you don’t know the exact meaning of a word, you’ll still have the basis for hunches that could be worth serious points. Think of this book as a toolbox. We’ll give you all the tools and their uses. By building a strong foundation in the elements that make up the SAT, you will be able to master the SAT itself.
