Description:
It's no secret that the more you study for the SAT, the better you'll do, yet there may be good reasons why a three-inch-thick, 400-page tome is not for you. Maybe you've procrastinated a tad and your SAT (or PSAT) date looms near. Maybe you're great on the basic verbal and mathematics skills and just want some help in test-taking strategies and a little familiarity with its structure and directions. Or maybe you're so keen to review that your main criterion is a book small and light enough to fit easily into purse or backpack, the better to study on buses, before school, and during lunch. If any of these are true, you'll find the Kaplan SAT & PSAT Essential Review a good choice. Following a crash course in SAT know-how, the guide covers basic verbal strategies and analogy techniques, sentence completion and critical reading methods, classic math strategies, how to avoid math traps, and calculator techniques. Written to the student, with practical, explicit suggestions and proven tactics, the Essential Review offers an easy way to prepare for an important test, improve your score, and lower your pretest stress. --Stephanie Gold
